#Hydrogen infused water?
I am of course pro #HydrogenEconomy, but this sort of nonsense is just too much.
So is it heavy water?
No. It's regular water with a little bit (1.6 ppm maximum under 1 atmospheric pressure at room temperature) of hydrogen gas dissolved in it.
Does that actually do anything or is it just a marketing thing?
There are studies which suggest that there are health benefits to drinking hydrogen infused water, but I'm not reading all that. I doubt that the actual research is good quality or that the findings are actually significant. Furthermore, as someone else replied, it's likely that most of the hydrogen that was infused in the water at the factory has escaped by the time the product reaches the consumer.
This video is pretty good at explaining the bullshit these water companies try to sell people.

My first thought, H2O2
I'm sure there's a quack out there trying to convince people that drinking hydrogen peroxide is good for you.
