Hydrogen Water Bottle FAQs
What are the benefits of using a hydrogen water bottle?
Hydrogen water bottles are designed to infuse molecular hydrogen into water, which studies suggest can offer health benefits such as improved energy levels, better hydration, antioxidant and anti inflammatory properties and anti-aging that combat oxidative stress.
How does a hydrogen water bottle work?
A hydrogen water bottle works by using an electrolysis process to separate hydrogen and oxygen in water. The bottle then infuses molecular hydrogen into the water, increasing its hydrogen content. This involves charging the bottle, filling it with water, and then starting the infusion process with the press of a button.
Is hydrogen water safe to drink?
Yes, hydrogen water is considered safe to drink. Hydrogen, being a naturally occurring element and the smallest molecule, is non-toxic and diffuses quickly. The amount of hydrogen infused in the water via these bottles is within safe consumption limits.
How long does the hydrogen stay in the water after using the bottle?
The hydrogen concentration in the water can dissipate once the bottle is opened and the water is exposed to air. Typically, hydrogen-rich water should be consumed within a few hours after production to maximise the potential benefits, as hydrogen can escape in about two to four hours after infusion.
Ice Bath & Chiller FAQs
How long should I stay in an ice bath?
It's generally recommended to stay in an ice bath for 3-6 minutes. Exceeding this duration can increase the risk of hypothermia and other adverse effects.
How cold should the water be for an ice bath?
The water temperature for an ice bath should be between 7° and 12°. Temperatures colder than this can be too extreme and increase the risk of frostbite and hypothermia.
How often should I take ice baths?
The frequency of ice baths depends on your training intensity and recovery needs. Generally, 1-3 times per week is sufficient for most people. It's important to listen to your body and avoid overdoing it.
How do I prepare an ice bath?
Fill your Colten Health ice bath with water, turn on the chiller and set the temperature through the app. Wait for the desired temperature to be achieved, this should take 30 - 45 minutes. Enjoy your ice bath!
How is the water cleaned?
Our Colten Health water chillers (Ice Jet) have built in water filtration, constantly filtering the water to ensure it stays free from dirt or any other particles. The chiller also includes UV sanitation filtration which destroys all bacteria and microorganisms. If using without the Ice Jet, we recommend to replace the water every 1-2 weeks and 3-4 weeks with the Ice Jet ,depending on usage and frequency.
Is it essential for me to buy a water chiller with the ice bath?
It is not essential to purchase both the ice bath and the water chiller together, you can certainly purchase the ice bath by itself. The ice bath comes with plugs which can be inserted into the wholes which will ensure the water does not leak. You can then easily add ice and enjoy your ice bath.
Does the Colten Health team do the installation?
Our Ice baths are designed to be user friendly, with minimal installation. Therefore, no installation team is required. You simply inflate your ice bath, connect the hoses to the chiller and the tub, and you are ready to go.
