• Pourquoi 9 000 PPB et pas 8 500 — ELITE 9K HYDROGENYX, mesure DPD

Why 9,000 PPB and not 8,500?

Paul Fournier


— WEEKLY EDITION · FRIDAY MAY 22 —

The 9,000 PPB threshold is not marketing.

Aoki et al. (2012) — marathon runners study — applies 7,600 PPB minimum. Ohsawa et al. (2007) — origin of the protocol — applies 9,000 PPB. Ohta et al. (2024) — UV skin — applies 9,000 PPB minimum, dose-response beyond.

At 8,500 PPB, you are below Ohsawa's and Ohta's threshold. At 9,000 PPB, you validate the entire peer-reviewed corpus of the past 18 years.

That's why ELITE 9K is calibrated at 9,000 PPB ±5%, and not at 8,000 or 10,000. The choice is scientific, not commercial.

9,000 PPB target · 7 Peer-reviewed studies · ±5% DPD tolerance
