Hello, I am Jun, a sales employee supporting everyone’s “healthy daily life” in the health industry!
Regarding the previous article on “homemade meals,” I immediately received a wonderful message saying, “I’m going to try washing my vegetables with hydrogen water starting today!” Preparing the basics of food is the first step toward creating a future for our animals.
Now, this time, I would like to bring you a theme that is very serious, yet something I want all owners to know. It is “pet care during disasters.” In Japan, where we live side-by-side with natural disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons, how does hydrogen become an “invisible shield” to protect the lives and hearts of animals in the special environment of a shelter? I will share the science of disaster prevention that I propose in the sales field.
- Shelters Are a Massive Source of “Oxidative Stress”
When a disaster occurs, we first ensure the safety of ourselves and our families. However, what awaits after reaching a shelter is a stressful environment that can be called a “secondary disaster” for both humans and animals.
Especially for animals, they cannot understand why they have been taken to an unknown place, surrounded by the presence of strangers, other animals, and unfamiliar noises. This fear of “not understanding the situation” causes the autonomic nervous system to become tense to the extreme.
When subjected to such intense mental stress, bad reactive oxygen species (hydroxyl radicals: ⋅OH) are generated at an explosive rate within the cells of the body. This is “oxidative stress.” Inside the bodies of those who cannot speak, each and every cell is engulfed in the flames of oxidation and is screaming.
- “Shelter Sickness” Caused by Decreased Immunity
When oxidative stress accumulates, the first thing to be affected is the immune system. If shelter life continues for several days, even normally healthy children will begin to show symptoms such as the following.
１．Digestive troubles: Severe diarrhea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
２．Risk of infectious diseases: Loss of resistance to bacteria and viruses by taking advantage of lowered immunity.
３．Worsening of chronic illnesses: Rapid progression of heart disease, kidney disease, and dermatitis.
Hearing the voices of owners who have been affected by disasters in the sales field, there is no end to tragedies such as “they aged all at once due to the change in environment” or “their physical condition broke down due to shelter life and never returned.” In shelter care, how to minimize this oxidative damage is truly a top priority related to life.
- The Mechanism by Which Hydrogen Becomes a “Shield for the Heart” and Regulates the Autonomic Nervous System
Here, the characteristics of hydrogen that I have been sharing since Vol. 1 directly link to the “mental care” of animals.
Because hydrogen is the smallest molecule in the universe, it is one of the few substances that can reach deep into the brain. Reducing oxidative damage within the brain leads to calming the regions of the brain that govern emotions and instincts.
Latest research shows data that hydrogen inhalation and drinking hydrogen water suppress excessive excitement of the sympathetic nervous system and make the “parasympathetic nervous system,” which governs relaxation, dominant. Offering a shield of “tranquility” through the power of science to the hearts of animals in a state of panic. This is a role that only hydrogen can play.
- “Hydrogen Stockpiling” Strategy That Shows Its True Value During Disasters
As a salesman, I strongly recommend keeping the following “hydrogen set” in your disaster prevention bag.
１．Hydrogen water in aluminum pouches:
It has a long shelf life and can be used not only as drinking water but also to stimulate appetite by softening dry food or to wipe skin roughened by stress.
２．Portable hydrogen inhalers:
Recently, palm-sized inhalers that run on batteries or mobile batteries have appeared. Simply by placing this in the corner of a cage or carry bag, the inside quickly transforms into a “high-concentration hydrogen room.” Even in a noisy shelter, the inside of the cage can be turned into a quiet space protected by a hydrogen barrier.
３．Hydrogen supplements:
In times of panic when water or inhalation is difficult, hydrogen supplements that you just mix into food will continue to gradually release hydrogen in the body, protecting them from oxidative stress on a 24-hour basis.
- “Lesson from the Field”: Preparation Is a Form of Love
One customer I handle evacuated with a portable hydrogen inhaler during an earthquake. While the surrounding dogs continued to bark in anxiety, that person’s dog apparently slept soundly while inhaling hydrogen. Seeing that, the surrounding owners also gradually regained their composure—I heard such a heartwarming episode.
Hydrogen is not merely a “health method.” In extreme conditions, it is a means to physically deliver the message “It’s okay, I’m protecting you” to a partner who does not understand words.
Jun’s Note
Disaster drills are not just for humans. Simulating, “In the event of an emergency, how will I deliver hydrogen to this child?” With that one preparation, there are lives that can be saved and smiles that can be protected. As a salesman, I call this a “scientific amulet.”
Now, next time (Vol. 13) is about solving mouth troubles! The relationship between “periodontal disease and systemic diseases.” In fact, dirt in the mouth erodes the heart and kidneys… I will discuss how hydrogen cuts that terrifying chain. Please look forward to it!
