Keep on Top of Your Hydration Game
Here at HydrateM8, we are keen to get our customers to unlock their potential and get on top of their hydration game. We understand it is important to keep hydration at the forefront of your mind to keep your body hydrated, so here are five tips for better hydration!
-
Water, water, water!
It is a simple one to begin with – You really need to drink more water!
Did you know that the human body is made up of around 60% water? Water helps to keep both your mind and body hydrated and functioning throughout the day, along with flushing out toxins. Have a read of this post for more science-backed benefits of drinking water.

Keep track of your hydration.
Keeping track of your hydration may not be an easy one. We’ve been there – A busy day at work, headaches in the afternoon and realising we’ve consumed little to no water.
If you are struggling to keep track of how much water you are drinking throughout the day, take the guess work out of good hydration with our Hydration Tracker Water Bottles.
Coming in various different designs, these motivational water bottles with timings on the back help you to drink smaller but more consistent amounts throughout the day.
