Hey everybody, happy to be on PH and thanks @_jacksmith for the hunt 🙏🏽 Hydrant was born out of a desire for a better hydration product, and a frustration with the "elixir" type claims that many new beverages have. This is not a sports drink. It's based on ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution) products, frequently used for treating dehydration in the developing world. We've taken an old concept and adapted it for modern purposes and a better taste. Modern routines are dehydrating, which impacts cognition and leads to fatigue. Whether it's working out, drinking for work, drinking socially, your annual flu or food poisoning from last night, we've designed a product that you can rely on to get you back to 💯 We're launching our crowdfunding campaign in November, and putting Hydrant through some hardcore testing in the meantime. Sign up for a free sample on the website, and send us your brutally honest feedback!

The hydration space is getting busier, how exactly is this different to a product like Nuun, or even just Gatorade?

@ryanstu89 great question - the main difference is electrolyte content. We wanted our first SKU to be really potent so it has: 520mg of Sodium, 390mg of Potassium, 60mg of Magnesium and 4mg of Zinc. This is more comparable to a product like Pedialyte than existing sports drinks and will have a noticeable effect on how they feel if they are dehydrated. I go into more detail on this here: https://www.drinkhydrant.com/blo...

Why did you choose sugar over sweeteners?

@daniel_rodic 2 reasons: taste and function. Diet sweeteners may be great from a calorie standpoint, but from a taste standpoint, I think they are beyond gross with their bitter aftertaste. Secondly, having sugar present activates the sodium-glucose co-transport mechanism in your small intestine. This is like a pump that draws more electrolytes and water into your bloodstream when glucose is present, hydrating you faster. More details here: https://www.drinkhydrant.com/blo...
