Don't Rehydrate Like It's 1979-Rehydrate with the Modern EASY with SOS Hydration!

With summer here and temps surging into the near hundreds, with 80+ humidity, staying hydrated is not only key for health and immunity, but essential for fitness and weight-loss! But forget those traditional hydration drinks you grew up with- this new non-GMO SOS oral rehydration powder helps and your family, safely hydrate far more easily and efficaciously. Easy to take on the go, you just need an SOS Hydration packet and a bottle of water!

SOS Hydration provides superior hydration to help you replenish, and combat the symptoms of dehydration, with 3x more electrolytes, ½ the sugar, ½ the calories, added magnesium and zinc than other so-called oral rehydration drinks.  Designed by science, doctor-s and athletes, SOS Hydration is formulated to provide I.V. drip-equivalent hydration 3x faster than drinking water alone, and without artificial ingredients or unnecessary ingredients, even while still being very tasty! 

SOS Hydration was engineered with the purpose of combating dehydration to improve overall human performance.  Did you know that during a normal day we lose about two litres  of  water just through breathing, sweat, urine and bowel movements? Plus, when we exercise, we can lose up to two litres per hour! I had no idea!

  

While sweating, the two main electrolytes we lose are: sodium and chloride. When we first start to sense thirst, we are already close to 2% dehydrated. This can result in headaches, tiredness and fatigue which are further exacerbated without adequate rehydration and  rebalancing of electrolytes. In addition, this dehydration results in an increase in cardiovascular strain, with heart rate being shown to increase by 4 beats per minute for each percent loss in body weight. This corresponds with an increase in body temperature and the rate at which glycogen stored in the muscles is consumed. 

In addition, a 2% loss in body weight due to dehydration can reduce athletic performance by up to 20%. The SOS Hydration solution allows you to absorb 3x more water than from water alone.! Each packet/scoop of SOS contains only 10 calories, yet has 50% more electrolytes and 75% less sugar than typical sports drinks!

If you've followed this blog for any time, you know how ant-traditional sport drinks we are! With the kif an active Irish Dancer, keeping her hydrated during strenuous practive sessions is a must, but she does not need the extra sugar and additives!

SOS Hydration comes in flavors like berry, watermelon, mango, coconut and citrus! Packets are available in 20, 30 and 40 packets, or in a 50 serving tub pof hydrating powder. Miss Grace was able to sample all of the flavors and declared berry her favorite, with watermelon pretty close behind. She's not fond of coconut, so that was moot, Mango came after watermelon. Citrus pretty much has a traditional hydration drink taste and unfortunately not one she has ever liked. It worked very well for her, even when practising outside in the heat

With some sports starting back up, and fall influenza season lurking ahead, being able to find a hydration product that not only works QUICKLY, but very efficiently with your body, is a must! And being able to find SOS Hydration at your local Whole Foods Market, makes it available when you need it! You can also purchase through SOS online (free shipping with orders over $25 too!).
