title: Content of deuterium in biological fluids and organs: Influence of deuterium depleted water on D/H gradient and the process of adaptation.
abstract: It is found that consumption of deuterium depleted water reduces not only the content of deuterium in biological fluids but also more than 2 times reduces the D/H gradient value along the line: mixed saliva > blood plasma. The experimental data showed that a physiological solution prepared on deuterium depleted water during induced apoptosis activates the DNA repair system, significantly reducing the number of single-stranded DNA breaks, which, in general, indicates an increase in the efficiency of defensive systems of the cell.
