HOW THE BODY LOSES WATER

The body's fluid is made up of water and essential ions (electrolytes) such as Na+, K+, Cl-,... When the body loses fluids through sweat, both water and ions are lost. Drinking only water may dilute body fluids without fully restoring this balance, as excess water is excreted before proper rehydration is achieved.

THE TRUTH OF BODY FLUIDS

The human body is made up of around 60-65% water. Each day, an adult loses approximately 2.5 liters of fluid through sweat, respiration, and urine, along with essential ions. Without proper replenishment, this loss can affect daily functions and lead to dehydration.

Minerals: Essential elements in the body, excluding oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen, are collectively referred to as minerals.

BACKED BY CLINICAL RESEARCH

Otsuka research facilityPRODUCT DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

Pocari Sweat's parent company, Otsuka, has been advancing research in human physiology and IV solutions since 1946. Building on this expertise, Pocari Sweat was developed in 1980 as a rehydration drink designed to replenish water and electrolytes lost through sweating.

Its formula is based on research into the body's water metabolism, focusing on efficient absorption and fluid balance.

Since then, Otsuka has continued its research, accumulating scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of Pocari Sweat.

Otsuka established the Nutraceuticals Research Institute (Saga) in 1984, bringing together researchers in exercise and nutrition, and collaborating with institutions worldwide.
