New Study Suggests Hydrogen Water May Support Testosterone and Recovery in Male Adults

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Echo is highlighting a new study showing that hydrogen water may support testosterone levels and exercise recovery in older adults. The randomized, double-blind trial found that participants over 50 who drank hydrogen-rich water twice daily for six weeks saw higher free testosterone, improved lipid profiles, and reduced markers of muscle damage from resistance training.

Sarah Taylor-Laine, lead Scientist and researcher for Echo, emphasized the importance of continuing research in this area: “While this is still early-stage science, the results are promising. Supporting hormone balance, exercise recovery, and metabolic health through something as simple as water infused with hydrogen could open a whole new avenue of wellness strategies for men and women of all ages.”

This new clinical trial adds to a growing body of research exploring how molecular hydrogen may support hormonal and metabolic health in aging populations. Previous studies have highlighted hydrogen’s role in reducing oxidative stress—an underlying factor in testosterone decline. By mitigating cellular stress, hydrogen water may offer a natural, non-invasive way to support hormone function as men age.

“Hydrogen is emerging as one of the most versatile molecules for human health,” said Josh Carr, CEO of Echo. “For athletes, reducing muscle damage and speeding up recovery is a game changer. At the same time, the study shows real promise for middle-aged men, who naturally begin to experience a decline in testosterone. Hydrogen water helps athletes recover stronger and gives men a natural way to maintain energy, resilience, and vitality.”

Scientists are also exploring how hydrogen impacts the gut, which plays a surprisingly big role in hormone regulation. Gut bacteria have been found to help convert stress-related hormones into testosterone, which helps explain how hydrogen water can support hormone balance.
