Figure 1From: Pilot study: Effects of drinking hydrogen-rich water on muscle fatigue caused by acute exercise in elite athletesSequential changes of blood lactate levels during exercise. Blood lactate levels in the athletes given PW significantly increased immediately after exercise compared to the levels at pre-exercise. HW significantly reduced blood lactate levels post exercise using bicycle ergometer. (*p < 0.05 vs. time 0. #p < 0.05 vs HW, N = 10).Back to article page
