SiS GO Hydro – Superior Hydration for Athletes

The importance of hydration has been highlighted in recent years, with recommendations from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) for women to drink a minimum of two litres and men a minimum of 2.5 litres of water each day.

With just a 2% drop below optimum hydration levels, you are considered to be dehydrated and though many people will reach for water at the gym or out training, it's important to highlight that hydration is to do with more than just water.

When exercising, 86% of people drink water to hydrate but are actually missing out on essential electrolytes that are key to maintain homeostasis: a state where your body's internal environment can be maintained. Although these minerals are naturally occurring in your diet, they are actively lost through sweating and the subsequent shortfall can lead to processes being compromised such as the transportation of substances into and out of cells.
