Hydration Tips

International Bottled Water Association offers the following tips for maintaining proper hydration:

Drink at least eight 1 metric cup servings of water each day. The more active you are, the more water you need to replenish lost fluids. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink water. By the time you feel thirsty, you have probably already lost two or more cups of your total body water composition. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Convenience is a must, so carry a bottle of water with you as you commute to work, run errands or enjoy a day at the beach. While at work, keep a bottle of water on your desk, or visit the office water cooler and take a water break rather than a coffee break. Don’t substitute beverages with alcohol or caffeine for water. Caffeine and alcohol act as diuretic beverages and can cause you to lose water through increased urination.Once you start exercising, drink water throughout your workout. Keep a bottle of water with you and take frequent water breaks. Don’t underestimate the amount of fluids lost from perspiration. Following a workout, you need to drink two cups of water for each pound lost. Start and end your day with water. Your body loses water while you sleep, so drink a serving before bed and again when you wake up. Common colds and the flu frequently lead to dehydration. Keep a large bottle of water next to your bed so you can sip it throughout the day without having to get up.

Cool water – not carbonated beverages or sports drinks – is the best fluid for keeping hydrated when it’s warm outside. Cool water is absorbed much more quickly than warm fluids and may help to cool off your overheated body. If you’re going to be away from home or outdoors, make sure you keep a bottle of water close by.Make sure your children drink enough water. Children need water to balance their intake of other beverages – especially during activities. Packing bottled water in a child’s lunch instead of juice or regular soda can also help prevent childhood obesity.

  • “Hi there – I just think you are the bees knees with the new liquid holster. IT IS THE BEST THING EVER. I bought mine at the child show in Auckland last weekend and I cannot rave about it enough. It also makes me drink water when out walking as before it was too hard to bend down whilst walking to pick up my water bottle and now I am wanting to buy another one so I have one for me and one on the otherside for my 17 month son. Thanks heaps for the great invention.”

    Belinda – New Zealand
  • “I have my liquid holster attached to my mountain buggy pram and it is just awesome. What a great invention, it is so good to be out walking and not have to stop and bend down to get my drink bottle. As I go up hills, the basket tilts with the gradient and there’s never any spillage. Thanks for a great product .”

    Tarina – New Zealand
  • “Great Product!! makes drinking when pushing a buggy around a lot easier as your water, coffee, frappachino etc is on hand within an instant and yet you are able to hang it up as such so both hands are free!! Way to go L.H.”

    Cheyanne – New Zealand
  • “This product is fantastic, I have been needing something like this for ages for my Mountain Buggy for when I am walking, it is hard to walk and hold a water bottle at the same time in easy reach and this has solved that problem for me. Plus it is great for my coffee when I am shopping or for my daughter’s bottle. Great invention, well done.”

    Linda – New Zealand
  • “This product is fantastic. After biking for 2 1/2 hours in the Redwood Forest just out of Rotorua (NZ) on up to a Grade 4 track, the Liquid Holster could not be faulted. It withstood rough terrain, sudden drops and bumps and the bottle didn’t once fall out and was so easy to get to. This is a must for everyone, biker or not! It is brilliant”
