How Thorzt can keep you hydrated and on top of your game!

When the majority of us think about hydration we tend to think it is a summer problem, as the days get longer and you are sweating more. This just isn’t the case, as you will become just as easily dehydrated in winter. Being able to keep on top of your hydration whether you are at work or home is a vital part of being able to continue to work in a safe environment. That is where thorzt comes into play, as they are able to provide you with a wide range of hydration aids to keep you going all day.

As it is known by most people, the human body requires water to be able to function, and our bodies can survive for much longer without food than we can without water. We are unable to produce water within our bodies, so any fluid that we lose, we must replace. The amount needing to be replaced will depend on the individual's body size, metabolism, climate conditions, our activity levels and the food we eat.

Most workers will be in ‘mild dehydration’ most days, if they dont take replenishing the fluids seriously. Mild hydration is the loss of 1-4% of their bodily fluids, workers generally sweat anywhere from 400ml to 2.6L per hour. Your heart rate will increase by 4 beats per minute for every 1% increase in dehydration your body goes through.

To understand why you need to take hydration seriously, you need to know that a loss of fluids can negatively affect your cognitive abilities, slow your reaction times and reduce performance. This can cause reduced output and careless work practices which could lead to serious accidents on the worksite. At 1% dehydration, your productivity is reduced by 12%. At 2% dehydration, your heart rate will increase by 8 beats per minute, which in turn will also increase the amount you sweat, while also decreasing your body's performance by up to 30%. Then at 3% dehydration your heart rate will increase by 12 beats per minute and your performance will reduce by 30-50%. Your reaction time will also be slowed to speeds similar to that if you have a blood alcohol level of 0.08.
