I pre-ordered an Echo Flask water bottle in early January hoping to get this in time for my Aconcagua Expedition. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen but was just as excited to get it when I returned home.
My wife is always on the lookout for ways to optimize our health and discovered this new product from Echo Water. Knowing how important hydration is for my kind of activity, she immediately sent me the link.
I had never heard of hydrogen-enriched water before but was very interested in who this company was and what they’ve been working on.
Their company description reads:
“Echo Water is a leading hydrogen therapy company dedicated to making the health benefits of hydrogen water and gas accessible to everyone. With our industry-leading hydrogen water flask, we offer cutting-edge technology that sets the standard for innovation in the wellness space. Loved by celebrities and trusted by wellness enthusiasts worldwide, Echo Water provides the most advanced hydrogen water solutions, unlocking the potential of this powerful therapy for better health, vitality, and longevity. Live Better. Do Better.”
Echo further states how “Studies indicate that hydrogen, as the smallest and lightest molecule, can penetrate cells and may support wellness in ways regular water does not.”
Understanding the importance of a truly hydrated cell that occurs with the help of electrically-charged minerals (aka electrolytes), this research resonates with me. I’m also intrigued by the idea that hydrogenated water supports natural energy production, boosts your immunity and can sustain cognitive health… all things that concern me as I just turned 56.
That said, it sounds like Echo’s use of technology is taking hydration to the next level!
First Impressions
I’ve been using the Echo Flask for about a month now and haven’t noticed any difference yet. I do have to keep in mind though, I feel like I’m still recovering from my recent trips to Argentina and then Colorado almost immediately after. That probably makes it the perfect time for me to be drinking hydrogen rich water. However, I’m much more interested in the longer-term effects of using an Echo Flask and how it might help improve my athletic performance, recovery, sleep, immunity and overall digestive health. I also found this article interesting about hydrogen water and altitude sickness.
Beyond that, I might have some feedback about the product itself and how it consumes the battery. I’ve noticed it down 1 bar after a single 10-minute cycle but can get 5 cycles when only 1 bar remains. Seems a bit backwards from what you might expect? I know that my caught attention right away!
