Estimating how much sodium you lose in sweat or measuring it accurately?
Hdrop Technologies Blog

1y ago
Estimating how much sodium you lose in sweat or measuring it accurately? Sweating is an essential mechanism for regulating body temperature during exercise, and it is important to understand both the amount of sweat (sweat rate) and the concentration of electrolytes, particularly sodium, in that sweat (sweat concentration) in order to develop a personalized hydration plan. The amount of sweat an athlete loses can vary based on factors such as temperature and intensity of exercise, while the concentration of electrolytes in the sweat is largely genetically determined but can vary from athlete t ..read more

Sweating Rate and Sweat Sodium Concentration in Athletes: A Review of Methodology and Intra/Interindividual Variability
Hdrop Technologies Blog
by hDrop Technologies

In this blog, we will be reviewing and summarizing the work that Lindsay B. Baker did on analyzing sweating rate and sweat sodium concentration in athletes. Lindsay worked on this detailed review and we will do a quick deep dive into it and the data presented. Here is the link to the scientific paper review: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5371639/ Sweating is an essential mechanism for regulating body temperature during exercise, and athletes can lose significant amounts of water and electrolytes through sweating. Measuring sweating rate (SR) and sweat electrolyte concentrations ..read more

How can I measure my sweat rate to improve my hydration strategy? As athletes, it’s important to stay hydrated in order to perform at our best. But how do we know how much we need to drink to maintain proper hydration? The answer is to measure our sweat rate. Sweat rate can vary considerably from person to person, and can also vary depending on a number of factors including intensity of exercise, ambient temperature and humidity, clothing choices, and heat acclimation status. This means that it’s important to measure sweat rate on a number of occasions and in different conditions in order to g ..read more

Hydration strategy
Hdrop Technologies Blog
by hDrop Technologies
1y ago
Hydration strategy and management during a workout is difficult for athletes, who don’t have a way of monitoring their hydration status. Sweat rates can vary significantly from individual to individual, making it difficult to gauge how much fluid needs to be replaced. Sweating is a natural response to the body’s need for water. Sweating rates vary greatly from person to person based on a variety of factors, including gender, weather, body mass, age, and fitness level. This makes it difficult to determine how much fluid needs to be replaced. The lack of a consistent, reliable hydration manageme ..read more

Is there a watch that monitors hydration?
Hdrop Technologies Blog

Is there a watch that monitors hydration? Currently, smartwatches can only estimate hydration status by either user input or through bioimpedance analysis. In order to accurately measure body water through bioimpedance, the user is required to stay still for a minute. If the user does not stay still, the user’s movement will generate noise to the bioimpedance signal, giving non-reliable results. Our approach using hDrop is to use conductance instead, through our patented technology we measure electrolyte changes in your sweat in real-time. This method allows us to measure your hydration and el ..read more

Can hydration lower blood pressure?
Hdrop Technologies Blog
by hDrop Technologies
1y ago
Lower blood pressure. Our bodies are made up of millions of cells, which all need to be nourished and kept healthy. The way our body absorbs, processes and uses the food we eat is called the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The GI tract is made up of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, and anus. The food we eat is broken down into a liquid form so that it can be absorbed into the body. The human body is made up of about 60% water. It’s also important to keep your body well-hydrated, which is why it’s sometimes called “being hydrated” or “drinking water”. Can hydration lower ..read more

Dehydration and respiratory rate
Hdrop Technologies Blog
by hDrop Technologies
1y ago
Dehydration and respiratory rate are related. Dehydration has been shown to increase the rate of respiratory rate in several species. This is due to the role of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in controlling the rate of breathing in response to various physiological conditions. In general, the ANS is responsible for regulating the rate and depth of breathing in response to changes in the environment. When the body loses fluids, the ANS responds by increasing the rate and depth of breathing to compensate for the loss of fluid. When people become dehydrated, their body functions change. Not b ..read more
