All these fools trying to add hydrogen to water when they should be focusing on dechlorinating table salt.

Fun fact: There are more hydrogen atoms in a single molecule of water than there are stars in the entire solar system.
I bet it's double the amount!

Hear me out bro... H3O
Bro, BRO! Check this out, get extra OXYGEN in H₂O₂!!1!
DOUBLE the oxygen!
Even more oxigen and mineralization H~2~SO~4~
The burning means it's working, right?
Johnny was a real good kid,
But now he is no more.
What he thought was H~2~O
Was H~2~SO~4~.
Drink that shit like it's rocket fuel.

H3O water refers to hydronium ions, which make water more acidic. However, stable H3O water in bottled form doesn’t naturally exist—water always rebalances to H₂O. Pure H3O isn't drinkable it's too acid, It's ionized water, without any specific features. It's a publicity trick to sell it more expensive, like also this one, low in calories.
That's why I sell exclusive Deprotonated Hydronium™. It costs even more but it's worth it, and still zero calories. It's the best way to enjoy tasty ions, for a more balanced lifestyle.

What are you laughing at?
Oh boy, I remember that! A blast from 2000!
Look at that publisher. I wonder what those guys are up to nowadays
I have to assume it's just made sparkling with hydrogen instead of carbon dioxide. Heard about beer being hydrogenated in Japan several years ago and it had the side effect/party trick of being able to ignite your burps so you could belch fireballs.
Dissolved hydrogen is effectively acidifying it, no? That would be chugging fizzing acid. Must've been fun.
You get carbonic acid when carbonating water and some people like that taste, for some reason 🤷♂️
It's crazy tho how I was thinking similarly after posting the previous comment. If cabonated water gets the bitterness from carbonic acid, what would hydrogenated or nitrogenated water taste like? I've had Guiness and Pepsi Nitro. Both are made bubbly with nitrogen. And while the beer is good, the Pepsi just tasted like normal Pepsi, but like you had left it unsealed overnight.
Never had anything that was artificially hydrogenated, though. 🤔

I'm one of those people but I couldn't tell you why either. I just like sour, I guess.

As a chemistry teacher who regularly ignites Hydrogen gas, I cannot even imagine how dangerous it would be to ignite a hydrogen belch. That shit POPS.

But is it vegan?
As long as they don’t call it “organic”, that would kill my overly literal chemistry-nerd brain.

This is the kind of bullshit they come up with when you don't allow them to put the good stuff in it.
Radium, that was the real thing, not this shit.
And cocaïne
I'd like some irradiated cocaine please.
Best we can do is the original formula Coca-cola with red wine, cocaine, and caffeine.
It’s the pause that refreshes.

I assume they mean H2. Y'all laugh but H2 and H2O are different things. You can have both.

So... h3O?
MFers went ahead and invented acids
Don't you know that 100% of all people who drink water die?
Why on earth drinking hydrogen-infused water increase athletic performance? I honestly doubt any claims made by this shit product.
Edit: I am no chemistry expert, but wouldn't most hydrogen just collect above the water surface and as soon the can is opened, it escapes. I don't know if it happens or not, if I am wrong please correct me.
Hydrogen is lighter than air, so it's like, instant weight loss! Wait until they have hydrogen infused red bull....
Staying hydrated does increase athletic performance though

Ladies and gentlemen, they’ve done it.
Is that the evil twin of the oxigenated water?
