In aging process, oxidative stress has been postulated to play a vital role. Basically, oxidative damage contributes to the hall markers of aging. Nonetheless, recent report has reported that drinking water plays a vital role especially in terms of age preventing agent. Recently, studies on functional water such as mineral rich spring water, alkaline reduced water, hydrogen rich water has gained attention due to its response to health-promoting and disease preventing aspect through its anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. Our previous conducted clinical studies have reported that bathing on antioxidant rich spring water suppressed the free radicals such as reactive oxygen species in human blood. Other previous conducted studies on consumption of functional water on human has suggest that it has capacity to maintain a healthy physiological state, improved recovery from exhaustive physical fatigue and elimination of reactive oxygen species which induces oxidative damage. Therefore, in this presentation we will summarize the role of functional water as an antioxidative agent and its role for decreasing the aging process. Besides, we will also summarize the previous conducted studies on administration and consumption of these functional waters and its mechanistic role in longeitivity.
