Each pouch contains 30 individual stick packs – a full month's supply when taken once every day. Many people keep extra stick packs in their car, purse, or travel bag for convenience.
"Drink 8 glasses of water a day." We've all heard this.
But what if you drink your 8 glasses and STILL feel dehydrated?
Well, here's the reason: The advice you’ve always heard about hydration is outdated – and sometimes, dead wrong.
After age 60, your body goes through 3 big changes. These changes make it hard to stay hydrated, no matter how much water you drink.
Yet these changes affect every cell in your body. They make it harder to keep water in your body, distribute it, and use it.
That’s why people over 60 often feel the symptoms of dehydration – dry mouth, fatigue, fogginess – even when they’re doing everything “right.”
But there's good news. Scientists have found a simple fix.
Many people who try this fix feel more awake in 30 minutes. They have steady energy all day. And their focus returns.
But here’s the most surprising part: They drink less water but stay MORE hydrated.
I know – that sounds counter-intuitive. But once I walk you through the science, it’ll make perfect sense.
Let’s start with the 3 biological changes no one talks about – and what to do about them.
Deep in your brain lies the control center called the hypothalamus. One of its jobs is to tell you when you need water. When your body needs water, it’s supposed to send out a strong “drink now” signal.
But here's what scientists have discovered: As we age, that thirst signal fades.
In one study, older adults who were dehydrated drank 60% less water than younger adults – even though both groups were just as dehydrated. The older adults’ brains simply didn’t register the need to drink.
It’s not just aging, though, that makes you drink less water. Some medications and health conditions can also dampen your thirst signals.
The result? Your body may desperately need water – but you don’t feel thirsty. So you don’t hydrate.
And, believe it or not, when you’re dehydrated, your brain shrinks! This makes it harder for your brain cells to talk to each other.
In fact, one study showed that people over 60 who were dehydrated did much worse on attention tests. They scored a whopping 35% lower. That means they got a “D” on a test they should have aced!
Dehydration also affects memory, focus, and reaction time.
And you don’t have to be extremely dehydrated for this to happen. Even losing just 1% of your body’s water can slow you down.
Believe it or not, you can lose that small amount with everyday activities, like walking, cooking, or playing with your children and grandchildren.
But there’s something even more worrying. Even if you do drink water, it might be passing right through you.
You may think that drinking 8 glasses of water a day will keep you healthy. But for some people that might not be enough. There are 3 reasons why:
Reason #1: Your kidneys struggle to hold water.
As you may know, your kidneys’ job is to remove waste and toxins. Kidneys also control the amount of water in your body. If you have too much water, they turn that into urine.
But, as you age, kidneys find it harder to hold onto water.
This means water leaves your body faster than normal. So you might be drinking 8 glasses of water, but you’re still dehydrated.
Reason #2: You’re losing essential minerals.
When you lose water, you also lose essential minerals called electrolytes. Electrolytes send water to your muscles, brain, and skin.
They also help your nerves send messages. They help your muscles move and relax. And they keep your heartbeat steady.
What happens when you don’t have enough electrolytes? Water doesn’t get where it needs to go. And your body doesn’t work the way it should.
For example, you might feel dizzy when you stand up. You might get muscle cramps at night. And you might feel confused or have trouble thinking clearly.
These are all red flags of dehydration.
Reason #3: Water struggles to get into your cells.
Here's what most hydration advice misses entirely: Water hydrates you only when it enters your cells.
As you may know, your cells are surrounded by a protective membrane. This membrane keeps most things, including water, out of the cell
To stay hydrated, cells use special irrigation channels to bring water inside. These channels are called aquaporins (it's pronounced ah-kwa-PORE-ins).
Unfortunately, as you get older, you have fewer of these irrigation channels.
It's like having a farm where half the irrigation lines are blocked. There's plenty of water in the main supply, but it can't reach the crops that need it.
So your body stays dehydrated at the cellular level – even if you gulp down gallons of water.
No wonder studies show that many older adults don’t even know they’re dehydrated.
And, beyond the obvious symptoms like fatigue, dehydration also leads to other issues that many people dismiss as "just getting older."
Do you find yourself overheating easily – even when others feel fine? Or breaking a sweat from a short walk or some light gardening?
This can happen because dehydration raises your body temperature.
Your body cools itself through sweat. But when you’re even mildly dehydrated, sweat production drops.
That means your internal temperature rises faster … and stays high longer. Suddenly, normal activities feel exhausting. And heat becomes unbearable.
Dehydration also makes your skin age faster!
When your skin cells don’t have enough water, your skin dries out from the inside. You can try all the skin creams you want. But without enough water inside the cells, nothing works.
At first, dehydrated skin feels a little tight or flaky. But over time, it gets worse.
It loses its elasticity and softness. Then, it begins to thin. That’s when fine lines appear and wrinkles form.
Before you know it, you look older than you feel. Simply because you’re dehydrated.
Up to this point, we saw how “8 glasses” is a myth. And there’s another myth.
This myth tricks millions into thinking they’re rehydrating … when they’re really doing the opposite.
As we explained, electrolytes are essential. They help transport water into your muscles, nerves, and cells.
So you might think grabbing a sports drink or electrolyte supplement will help. Well, think again.
Most of these products are made for young athletes, not for regular folks.
They’re full of sugar – sometimes more than 30 grams per serving. That much sugar is okay for athletes who've just burned thousands of calories and sweated buckets.
But you are not training for the Super Bowl. You just want to feel steady, clear-headed, and hydrated throughout your day.
So here’s what actually happens when you grab one of those drinks:
First, your blood sugar spikes and crashes. Then, most of the electrolytes you paid for get flushed out before your body can use them.
That’s the bad news.
But here’s some good news...
If you don’t like public restrooms, imagine using one in space.
Astronauts use a vacuum toilet that sucks everything away. To peeurinate, they have to press a hose tightly against their skin. If they make a mistake, things can get very messy.
But the real challenge for astronauts isn’t the bathroom. It’s dehydration.
Zero gravity fools the body. Fluids don’t go down to the legs. Instead, they stay near the chest and head. So the brain thinks there’s too much water and tells the kidneys to get rid of it.
This means astronauts end up using their special toilet more often ... and also losing a lot of water.
In fact, astronauts can lose up to 22% of their body fluids – in just 3 days. They’re literally the most dehydrated humans in the solar system!
But astronauts can't afford to stay dehydrated. Dehydration disrupts focus and memory. It slows down reactions. And it causes dizziness and disorientation.
For an astronaut, one foggy moment can mean the difference between safety and disaster. That's why NASA has tried many solutions to keep astronauts hydrated.
One of these solutions was a special compound that astronauts added to their water. This compound had a special quality. It helped the human body hold onto water much longer than usual.
Here's what happened when NASA put this compound to the test – right here on Earth.
NASA recruited healthy volunteers for what sounds like a torture test: 90 minutes of exercise in a room heated to 107 °F.
They split healthy volunteers into two groups: One group drank plain water before the workout. The other group drank water mixed with NASA's special compound.
After 90 brutal minutes, the results shocked everyone:
The group that had the compound felt less hot while exercising. They had a lower body temperature.
And, even though they sweated more than the other group, they stayed 33% more hydrated.
How did this happen?
Normally, most water you drink turns into urine in just a few hours. But this compound helped “trap” water inside muscles and tissues – where it could help cool the body.
The first test got NASA scientists excited. To make sure the results were real, they did two more studies.
In the first study, some people drank water with the special compound. Others drank plain water.
Then everyone pedaled on stationary bikes. They kept at it until they couldn’t go any longer. The results exceeded all expectations:
The compound group rode more than 20% longer before getting tired. Even better, their heartbeats were lower, which meant their bodies weren’t working as hard.
So if someone could bike for an hour before, they could now go for about an hour and 15 minutes – with no extra effort.
In the second study, NASA gave half the people plain water, and the other half the compound and water mix. But this time, everyone had a carb drink while riding. This was to make sure that the difference didn’t come from extra calories.
Yet again, the results were the same. The compound group lasted longer and felt better. This proved that the special compound was the key difference.
It helped people last longer, feel cooler, and stay calmer – even in extreme heat and tough workouts.
In short, it did everything you’d want a hydration solution to do. But that’s not all…
NASA’s discovery didn’t stay a secret for long. The U.S. Army heard about the special compound and wanted to see if it worked for soldiers, too.
But instead of testing it in heat, they tried something different. They locked soldiers in cold and humid chambers for 4 hours. In cold, we lose water faster than we think, but we don’t feel thirsty.
Before going into the chamber, some soldiers drank plain water. Others drank water with the special compound.
The results – again – were dramatic:
The soldiers who had the special compound were nearly two times more hydrated. They also cut their bathroom trips in half. And their heart rates dropped – a sign of reduced stress.
So whether in scorching heat or bone-chilling cold, this compound worked. It helped people keep more water into their bodies – and stay calm.
The compound that NASA and the Army used is called glycerol (GLIS – uh – rawl).
In a moment, I'm going to tell you where to find glycerol. And what to look for to make sure you're getting the real thing.
Don’t let the scientific name throw you off. Glycerol is a natural, safe compound. You can find tiny amounts in foods like meat and milk. Your body even makes a little when it breaks down fat for energy.
But here’s what makes glycerol extraordinary:
Glycerol is an "osmolyte." Osmolytes are substances that act like sponges. They pull in and hold water.
When you drink water with glycerol, something astonishing happens. Instead of sending the water straight to your bladder, glycerol keep water in your blood and tissues – where you really need it.
Even better, your body doesn’t just keep more water. It uses that water more effectively, too.
And when that happens, you enjoy many amazing benefits.
Most people lose the water they drink within a few hours. That’s why doctors tell you to sip all day.
But, believe it or not, with glycerol you can drink less water and stay hydrated longer.
One of the first studies on glycerol found that it helped the body hold onto more water for 4 hours.1
Following studies found that this effect lasted up to 8 hours.
But further studies found that in some cases this effect can last even longer!2
That means you don’t have to worry about when you last drank water or how much you had. You can just feel good and enjoy your day.
You know that hot weather and exercise can leave you dehydrated. But did you know that it works the other way, too?
If you’re dehydrated, you sweat less, feel hotter and may get dizzy or weak.
Glycerol helps by filling your skin and muscles with extra water. This gives your body more water to use for cooling you down.
In one study, athletes worked out in conditions similar to those of Death Valley in California. Over 105 °F and hot winds. Half the athletes drank water with glycerol, the other half plain water.
Result? The glycerol group sweated more, had lower body temperature, and stayed safer.3
In another study, cyclists who took glycerol before riding had lower body temperatures and slower heart rates than those who drank only water.4
Many other studies show that glycerol helps cool the body, even in tough conditions. But it also helps you feel cooler in everyday life. Which makes it perfect for:
Do you get tired after simple chores? Need to rest halfway through a walk? Feel drained after activities that used to be easy?
It’s easy to blame this on age or lost strength. But often it’s a hydration issue. Even mild activity can dehydrate you, leaving you fatigued.5
The good news is that glycerol stores extra water in your body. One study found that glycerol can increase total body water by over 1 liter.6 That’s like carrying an extra water bottle with you all the time.
But don’t worry. This extra water goes to your tissues, muscle, brain and blood. So you don’t look or feel bloated.
Instead, you can stop worrying about how much water you drink. Your body keeps the water it needs and you feel better.
That’s why many studies show that people last longer and feel less tired during activity when they take glycerol.
That means you can take a walk without needing to stop halfway. You can go to the store and still have energy when you get home. And you can garden, move, and stay active – without crashing.
Getting up once a night to use the bathroom isn’t a huge deal. But if you wake up 2, 3, or more times, that’s a problem.
Every time your sleep is interrupted, you miss out on deep, restorative rest. The next day, you feel tired and low on energy.
Here’s where glycerol makes a difference.
In one study, people who drank water with glycerol kept 60% of the water, compared to only 32% of the control group.7
That’s nearly twice as much water staying in the body instead of turning into urine. So that’s nearly half the bathroom visits.
In another study, adults who took glycerol also saw their urine volume cut in half.8
And yet another study found that people produced less urine even 49 hours AFTER taking glycerol!9
Now, you might be wondering: “If I'm urinating less, aren’t toxins building up in my body?”
The answer is no. Your kidneys are still doing their job perfectly. Your body is still eliminating all the toxins it needs to. The difference is your kidneys aren't throwing away perfectly good water along with the waste.
But that’s not all. When your body stays hydrated at night, your heart doesn’t work as hard. And your brain clears waste better. So you wake up feeling rested, with more energy for your day.
Bottom line?
Glycerol helps your body keep and use water better. And you feel the difference in every part of your day.
You wake up less at night … stay cooler during the day … think more clearly … have more energy … and enjoy longer-lasting hydration.
But if glycerol works so well … how come you never heard of it before? And how come it’s not in the sports drinks you’ll find at the store?
The answer may surprise you…
After NASA and Army’s studies on glycerol, athletes took notice. Many started using it before workouts or races.
They used it not just to hydrate, but also to enhance blood flow, boost stamina, and improve performance.
But then something unexpected happened…
Because glycerol helps the body keep more water and increases blood volume, some athletes used it to cheat on drug tests. The World Anti-Doping Agency had no choice but to ban glycerol from the Olympics and other big sports events.
It wasn’t banned because it was dangerous. Quite the opposite. It was banned because it could give athletes an unfair advantage.
That ban was later taken back. But it was enough to hurt glycerol’s popularity as a hydration solution.
That’s a big reason why you won’t see glycerol in sports drinks at the store. Because until recently athletes weren’t allowed to use it.
There are other reasons, too. Pure glycerol costs more than cheap sugars and other ingredients found in most drinks.
Plus, low-quality glycerol doesn’t mix well. Most companies don’t want to pay for the good stuff. So they leave it out.
But, here at Bright Health Daily, we were so blown away by the research on glycerol, we knew we had to offer it to you. So we set out to create a hydration solution with high-quality glycerol.
But we didn't stop there. We asked: What if we could make glycerol even better? And we did.
Earlier we saw that electrolytes just pass through your body. But something almost magical happens when you mix glycerol with a certain electrolyte.
First, glycerol becomes much more effective. Second, your body can use every other electrolyte better.
The electrolyte that delivers these amazing benefits is sodium.
You see, when sodium and glycerol reach your intestines, they activate a protein called SGLT-1. SGLT-1 pulls water into your bloodstream – fast.
In fact, for every 1 molecule of sodium, your body absorbs up to 260 molecules of water.
Together, sodium and glycerol create what scientists call the “hyperhydration effect.”
Sodium pulls water in. Glycerol holds it in place.
This combo doubles how well your body uses water compared to glycerol alone.
A team of Canadian scientists decided to put this combo to the test.
They invited 15 healthy adults to their lab over three separate days. Each day, participants drank 2 liters of fluid:
One day, it was just water and sodium. Another day, just water and glycerol. And the other day, a combo of water plus sodium and glycerol.
Then, the participants sat still for 3 hours while the researchers measured urine output and water in the body.
The results were stunning.
The glycerol and sodium combo was the clear winner. It cut urine output in half.10
And it produced the highest hydration levels ever recorded in a clinical study!
In fact, one glass of water mixed with glycerol and sodium, hydrates you like 12 glasses of regular water!11
This makes the combination of sodium and glycerol the best way to hydrate the human body. But that’s not all.
Because when your body holds water longer, other electrolytes stay in the body longer. So they work better, too.
What does this mean for you?
Fewer cramps and muscle spasms. Better sleep. More energy and clearer thinking.
Honestly, if we just combined glycerol with sodium and other electrolytes, we would have the best hydration solution out there.
But we wanted to solve every hydration problem – so we added even more to our mix…
Remember how we talked about aquaporins – those irrigation channels that let water into your cells? And that as we age, we have fewer of these channels. That means it's harder for your body to pull in water where it’s needed most.
L-Taurine is an amino acid that helps water get into your cells.12, 13 So everything starts working better.
In one study, cyclists who took taurine rode longer and faster than those who didn’t.14
And, in another study, taurine helped squash players feel less tired, react faster, and have less soreness.15
But taurine does more than hydrate and boost performance.
It also calms your nervous system, reduces anxiety and promotes better sleep. That’s a big deal – especially if dehydration has been stealing your rest.
With all this research, we knew we had to add taurine to our formula.
And we also added something special to help you drink more water.
Your hypothalamus (the control center in your brain we talked about before) relies on dopamine to send "drink water now" messages. But, as we get older, our bodies make less dopamine.
L-Tyrosine promotes dopamine production.16 More dopamine may help your brain send clearer thirst signals. It can also help you feel more motivated to drink water.
But dopamine does more than just help with thirst. It also supports clearer thinking, better memory, and steadier mood.
In clinical studies, older adults who took tyrosine felt more clear-headed and alert, especially when they were tired or stressed.17
But your body also needs the right vitamins to feel truly energized.
That’s why we added to our formula …
Even if you drink enough water and get enough electrolytes, you might still feel tired or foggy. That’s because your body needs certain vitamins to take advantage of the extra water.18
So we added B-vitamins to our formula. More specifically, B6, B12, niacin, and pantothenic acid. These help your body turn water and food into steady energy. They also keep your nerves and brain working well.19
We also added Vitamin C. Vitamin C protects your cells from damage. And it has been shown to help your skin hold onto water.20 This means you can stay hydrated and look better, too.
Together with glycerol, electrolytes, and amino acids, these vitamins help your body use water better. And they support your energy, your mind, and your skin.
Now, for the first time, you can get all of these science-backed ingredients in one formula.
Advanced Hydration Formula isn’t a sugary sports drink or a generic electrolyte supplement. It’s a breakthrough formula that keeps you hydrated and energized like nothing else I’ve ever seen.
Unlike sports drinks, it has no extra sugar. It only has 2 grams of carbohydrates. That’s just enough to help your body absorb water, without raising your blood sugar or adding extra calories.

“I am able to always stay hydrated and my frequent trips to the bathroom have reduced!”— Wilmer S., verified customer
Each pouch contains 30 individual stick packs – a full month's supply when taken once every day. Many people keep extra stick packs in their car, purse, or travel bag for convenience.
Within 30 minutes of taking your first serving, you'll start to feel more awake, less thirsty, and steady energy. You will start to notice the full benefits over the first week as your cells build up hydration.
Yes! The issue isn't how much water you drink – it's how much your body can actually use. Studies show that the ingredients in Advanced Hydration Formula help your body hold onto more of what you drink.
Sports drinks are mostly sugar water. They're designed for young athletes who need quick energy, not proper hydration.
Regular electrolyte powders are better, but they only replace minerals – they don't help your body use water better.
Advanced Hydration Formula does both. It replaces essential minerals AND includes compounds that multiply your body's ability to absorb and hold onto water.
No, it's actually the opposite. Advanced Hydration Formula helps your body use water efficiently – storing it in your muscles and bloodstream where it's needed, not under your skin where it causes bloating.
Users report feeling lighter and more energetic, not puffy or swollen. The formula helps your body achieve optimal hydration without excess fluid retention.
Actually, the opposite. Advanced Hydration Formula helps your body hold onto water more efficiently, so you stay hydrated with fewer bathroom trips. Studies show up to 52% reduction in urination.
It has a light, refreshing strawberry and watermelon flavor – not too sweet or artificial. Most people say it tastes like premium spa water.
