One hundred percent of 124 cancer-related genes were upregulated in cultured cells exposed to 300 ppm deuterium (nearly twice the normal level) ( Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are essential metabolites normally produced in abundance by the gut microbes, and they play a pivotal role in gut-brain communication and in maintaining human health ( The interplay between hydrogen-producing fermentative bacteria and hydrogen consuming reductive acetogens, methanogenic archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria becomes imbalanced in association with many gut disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and colon cancer ( 2 , produced by hydrogenogenic microbes, is severely depleted in deuterium, relative to the levels of deuterium in the molecules from which it was extracted
