The human body is made of 60-70% water. Most of this is lost through urination, the GI tract, sweat, and respiration.
Sodium's Role
Sodium plays an essential part in every cell in the body, particularly nerve and muscle function, where deficiencies or excesses become noticeable first.
Sodium Loss
The amount of sodium lost can range from as little as 200 mg/l to as much as 2,000 mg/l.
What does this mean?
Simply, it means there is no one blanket approach to cover every person’s hydration needs.
This simple 45-minute Sweat Test requires no blood, no all-out exercise efforts, and supplies rapid test results.
The Precision Hydration sweat analysis machine accurately records the amount of sodium you lose every time you exercise. Your genetics predominantly influence this information, and sweat rates remain relatively stable after infancy, meaning that one test is usually sufficient for most individuals.
