Fact check: 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated

A blogger named Jay sent me an email this morning asking me to help with a post he was writing about drinking more water.

He was writing his post to raise awareness and provide some inspo for how others can drink more water.

In his message to me, he said he recently learned a fact that over half of the people in the country are literally always dehydrated. 

He also happens to sell a lot of water-related products on his website, but before I looked into that, I discovered through a quick search that three-quarters of Americans are, in fact, chronically dehydrated.

This claim is everywhere, and I mean everywhere on the internet.

It’s almost an epidemic. “We just don’t drink enough water,” explains Kevin Rutherford, the CEO of Nuun, a functional hydration company.

“Hydration isn't being seen as a crucial aspect of wellness, but a brief trend or hangover cure that can impact everything from how we work to how we sleep,” he continues. 
That’s not good. I looked into it further.

I found that chronic dehydration negatively affects nearly every aspect of your health, including:

• Kidney Damage
• Urinary Problems
• Digestive Issues
• Cardiovascular Health
• Impaired Cognitive Function
• Skin and Hair Health
• Energy Levels and Mood
• Thermal Regulation
• Weight Management and Metabolism

Yikes. That’s a list.

I mean, I knew most of this already, but something about really reading into it kind of shook me. 

So, maybe in a state of mild panic, I looked up that Jay’s water products store from before and was absolutely shocked by what I found.

The ultimate hydration upgrade

Enter Aqua Vital, a special water bottle that infuses everyday water with hydrogen to increase its alkaline concentration.

Alkaline helps neutralize acid in your bloodstream, boost your metabolism, and improve absorption of nutrients. All great things.

It doesn't matter where the water comes from—tap, bottled, or any other clean source—the Aqua Vital bottle can infuse any kind with hydrogen, all at the press of a button.

Aqua Vital was the flagship product on Jay’s site, and he had tons of research explaining the science behind hydrogenated water.

Of course, I read it all. I’m a nerd. And I learned a lot, honestly.

Hydrogen water has remarkable anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown to be beneficial for preventing over 150+ diseases.

Plus, drinking hydrogen water daily has multitudes of antioxidant benefits, same as eating a ton of fruit and veggies.

After reading everything on the web page about Aqua Vital, I decided to give it a go and buy one. 

To say I was thoroughly impressed is an understatement.

Designed with the help of professional engineers

This bottle isn't just any water bottle.

It uses proprietary technology to infuse your water with hydrogen at different concentrations, depending on how long you use it.

In just 3 minutes, you can have water enriched with about 1/6 of hydrogen. 

If you're not in a rush, a 10-minute cycle boosts that concentration to 1/3.

It works with cold water, room temperature water, and even ice water.

No matter the water, you can get high-quality hydrogen water whenever you want. 

Plus it has a bit visual flair during the whole process thanks to the sweet light show!

Unlock your body and mind’s full potential

Aqua Vital basically transforms regular water into a true health-boosting elixir. Each sip not only hydrates you but also brings a host of wellness benefits like fighting oxidative stress, supporting the body's natural defense systems, and more:

BENEFITS AT A GLANCE

• Boosts energy levels
• Improves symptoms of chronic disease
• Enhances athletic performance
• No filters to change
• Supports weight loss
• Suitable for all ages
• Clears skin
• Helps joint strength
• Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties

A true fountain of youth in the palm of your hand.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Oh, and the taste? Hydrogen water is clean, crisp, and refreshing—just like the highest quality water you can imagine, but with the added health benefits.

Although you will see bubbles rise in your bottle, the water does not have a "fizzy" taste like carbonated water. 

Whether I was at home, at work, or on the go, the Aqua Vital bottle made it easy and convenient to enjoy hydrogen water anywhere.

With Aqua Vital, I feel like I’m nourishing my body with every sip.

And I’m not the only one who thinks so.

What do other Aqua Vital drinkers think?

  It’s like a recovery drink!

  I got a concussion playing roller derby and all my teammates recommended hydrogen water. I got this water bottle and I LOVE it! I sleep better when I use it before bed, and it helped me with dizziness during the concussion healing process. I feel much better now but I keep using it everyday anyway.

  Happy with my new water

  When I purchased this product I had never tried hydrogen water. But from the first time I tried it, I felt better. A feeling of well being, mental clarity and increased energy. I drink this 2 or 3 times a day. Every use gives me more energy and a feeling of well being.

  I love the science here!

  Molecular hydrogen therapy is crazy amazing, and I'm stunned it is not a normal thing in the west. They have links to thousands of studies, all peer-reviewed, placebo-controlled double-blind ones.

How much does Aqua Vital cost?

While most big brands deal with logistical middlemen, Aqua Vital does business solely online and directly with their customers.

It’s how they offer special online-only promotions by passing those savings on to you.

Right now, you can get one for $89.99. An unbelievable price for what it does, truly. They have bundle discounts too, so the more Aqua Vitals you buy, the more you save.

Plus, they frequently have sales and specials going on. Sometimes up to 50% off.

Check their website link at the end of the article to see if they’re running anything right now.

Where can you get yours?

I had to throw this in there—watch out for impostors. 

Jay let me in on the tea: Aqua Vital has been selling well enough that other companies have posted fake websites with inauthentic copies.

If you’re interested in getting one, make sure to only buy from the official Aqua Vital website.

Don’t risk yourself with a fake. Your health will thank you.

Conclusion: Is it worth it?

People tend not to care about their health until it goes awry. It’s sad, but true. 

One of the easiest and best ways to keep your body happy is to nourish it with water.

And if you want to level that water up, make it Aqua Vital.

It’s that simple.

And to bring it all back to the beginning, yes, I did help Jay with his post.
