Echo Responds to Misinformation with Science: Hydrogen Water Bottles Outperform Tablets in Safety, Efficacy, and Value

SALT LAKE CITY–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Echo, the global leader in hydrogen health technology, is responding forcefully to a wave of misinformation being spread by influencers with financial agendas. False claims that the Echo Flask causes heavy metals poisoning or stops working after six months are not only wrong—they’re dangerous.

“Hydrogen health is growing fast—and that growth has attracted a swarm of pseudo-scientific influencers using fear, not facts, to push products that pay them more money,” said Josh Carr, CEO of Echo. “We’re done letting those lies go unchallenged.”

At the center of the recent smear campaign are false allegations that Echo’s hydrogen water bottle stops producing hydrogen after six months and may leach harmful metals. These claims are categorically false, unsupported by any lab data, and contradicted by third-party testing and thousands of happy customers.

The Echo Flask is engineered with platinum-coated electrodes, a proprietary proton exchange membrane, and a self-cleaning system—guaranteeing high-concentration hydrogen performance for over 10,000 uses. Echo backs every unit with a 5-year warranty and provides published test results verifying both hydrogen output and water purity.

“These accusations aren’t coming from scientists or doctors. They’re coming from influencers who make more money when they scare people into buying hydrogen tablets,” Carr said. “They claim our bottle causes ‘heavy metals poisoning,’ but produce no lab report, no data—just fear bait.”

Echo acknowledges that some low-end hydrogen bottles do degrade quickly—especially those built with cheap electrodes or mass-produced knockoff parts. But the Echo Flask is in a different class: medical-grade materials, clean hydrogen output, and durable construction backed by a decade of engineering.

In contrast, hydrogen tablets—often promoted as a better alternative—have major safety, quality, and cost issues. Many contain unregulated magnesium, along with heavy metals like lead, and begin to degrade rapidly the moment you open the package.

“These tablet pushers mislead the public with confusing numbers and manipulated science,” Carr continued. “They talk about ‘high ppm levels’ as if that means something useful—but hydrogen dosage is measured in milligrams, not parts per million. A high ppm in a tiny volume can mean a low actual dose. Consumers are literally paying more for less. It’s dirty, expensive water with barely any usable hydrogen.”

Beyond misleading metrics, tablets are a recurring cost—often over $150/month to match the hydrogen levels the Echo Flask delivers for pennies per day. They’re unstable, expensive, and fundamentally misrepresented.

“We’ve tested these tablets. We’ve tested our bottles. We publish our data. And we stand behind our technology. That’s the difference,” said Carr. “People deserve truth—not hype.”

As the hydrogen wellness category continues to grow, Echo urges consumers to look past influencer theatrics and focus on science, transparency, and value. For third-party test results, hydrogen education, and Echo’s full product lineup, visit www.EchoWater.com.
