The HydraCoach Intelligent Water Bottle



Might be particularly useful for kidney stone patients, who never drink quite as much fluid as they should...

From the Website:
Sportline ... today unveiled the HydraCoach -- a revolutionary new water bottle that calculates an individual's daily hydration needs and coaches proper water consumption to ensure optimal hydration. This is the first product developed that actually helps people adhere to the expert's recommendations for drinking the right amount of water on a daily basis.

Known as the world's first interactive water bottle, the HydraCoach may appear similar to other water bottles, but there is one noticeable difference - the HydraCoach Hydration Monitor. This patented technology enables users to program in their personal hydration needs, track their daily water consumption sip by sip, and be coached throughout the day to achieve optimal hydration.
