WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO STAY HYDRATED?
Staying hydrated is vital for a healthy lifestyle as it helps your body function, improves sleep quality, keeps skin healthy, and so much more. We are uniquely designed to regulate our body temperature by losing water through the skin, that’s why we sweat.
The more water we lose, the more we need to replace. As we all know, sweat isn’t limited to intense physical activity. Pocari Sweat is great for sports, but it’s also great for the office, the classroom, the outdoors – wherever you need to feel your best, and fast.
A refreshing drink that replenishes you quickly is the best way to stay hydrated.

Pocari Sweat’s parent company, Otsuka, is an expert on human physiology and has been developing IV solutions since 1946. Using this specialist knowledge, Pocari Sweat was born in 1980 as a hydration drink that effectively restores water and electrolytes lost through sweat. Following the launch, the Otsuka team were dedicated to continuing to contribute to people’s daily health, that’s why they launched the Saga Research Institute in 1984 and why we continue our research with Saga to this day!

FAQs

- Producing energy
- Regulate fluid levels in your blood plasma
- Keep the pH balance of your blood
- Enable muscle contractions, including the beating of your heart

There are many ways to replenish electrolytes including through your diet and drinking water.

Learn more about Pocari Sweat and how it helps to effectively replenish lost electrolytes and hydrate faster and for longer than most other hydration drinks.
What are ions?
Our body fluid contains electrolytes such as sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium and magnesium which help the body function. These are chemicals that produce charged ions when they dissolve in water and work to enable the flow of electrical signals throughout the body. For example, when sodium chloride (NaCl) is dissolved in water, it separates into positive sodium ions which helps transmit nerve signals throughout the body.
