First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 35 times

Summary

This study looks at how a drink with glycerol and electrolytes affects fluid balance in 30 healthy, active adults aged 18-50. Participants will drink the test beverage or a placebo, and researchers will measure body weight changes and urine output to see which drink keeps more water in the body. The goal is to understand if this type of beverage can improve hydration better than plain water.
