Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Hydrogen-rich water

Patients receive hydrogen-rich water.

Dietary Supplement: Hydrogen-rich water
Patients drink 600mL hydrogen-rich water per day by applying hydrogen-rich water cup (Qingdao Haizhisheng Corp.,LTD, Qingdao, China) for 12 weeks. The dissolved hydrogen concentration is 5 ppm.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Patients receive placebo.

Dietary Supplement: placebo
Patients drink 600mL tap water per day by applying analogue cup for 12 weeks. This cup has the same appearance as the hydrogen-rich water cup, and the hydrogen-rich water and placebo water were indistinguishable. The dissolved hydrogen concentration is 0 ppm in placebo water.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) [Baseline and Week 12]

  6. Change in insulin sensitivity and beta cell function assessed by the homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) [Baseline and Week 12]

    The change in HOMA-IR and HOMA-β from baseline to Week 12 in hydrogen-rich water group compared to Placebo.

  7. Change in serum lipid profile [Baseline and Week 12]

  11. Change in blood pressure [Baseline and Week 12]

    The change in blood pressure from baseline to Week 12 in hydrogen-rich water group compared to Placebo.

  12. Change in oxidative stress index and inflammatory index [Baseline and Week 12]

    Serum MDA and SOD, TNF-α, IL-6 quantifications were conducted using commercial kits from baseline to Week 12.
