Coronavirus Dehydration Concerns & Solutions Addresses by Board Certified
Internist, Who Facilitates Donation Benefitting (Hydrating) Health Workers & Test-
Positive Patients in Hard-Hit States

Amid escalating concerns about derivative health implications of COVID-19

and influenza illnesses in general—with dehydration paramount among the more

5
ubiquitous health concerns as detailed in a multitude of reports—board-certified
internist Dr. Blanca Lizaola-Mayo is driving awareness for, and underscoring the
importance of, proper hydration—and understanding the perils of dehydration—as a
way to stay healthy and better recover from sickness.

“One of the main effects of viral infections is dehydration, which the body
combats by increasing its temperature, often causing a fever; this means that you
lose more water through skin evaporation and even breathing,” cautions Dr. Lizaola-
Mayo, co-founder SOS Hydration (www.SOSHydration.com). “Viruses can also make
you lose your appetite (another hydration source) and some may even cause
diarrhea, vomiting or both. One of the best natural ways to combat viral illness and
expedite recovery is through proper hydration, by drinking plenty of fluids. Hydration
acceleration solutions like SOS Hydration—often tapped for exercise, travel, imbibing
and other lifestyle-induced dehydration—can be a powerful recovery assist for viral
infections and infectious respiratory illnesses like influenza (‘the flu’) and COVID-19.
And, it can be used without causing gastrointestinal distress.”

So effective is the formulation, SOS Hydration is leading the dehydration-

focused donation charge to aid healthcare workers and affected families in
particularly hard hit states. This as the company recently announced that, through
its partnership with the Global Empowerment Mission/#BStrong non-profit disaster
relief organization, it has commenced donations starting with 20,000 packs of its
research-backed and independently tested hydration drink mix as an easy-
access/use dehydration avoidance and treatment/recovery solution.

“SOS Hydration—a pleasant-tasting, hydration-accelerating drink mix

uniquely engineered to combat mild to moderate dehydration—can help people fight
an infection and recover faster since if proffers hydration equivalent to an I.V. drip,
helping the body rehydrate fully three-times faster than by drinking water alone,”
added SOS Hydration co-founder James Mayo.

“Because SOS has less sugar, the packs are considerably smaller and more
compact than other so-called rehydration solutions on the market, so health
organizations can more readily stockpile—plus they’re more cost effective,” notes
Mayo. “While others are profiteering on this terrible situation, our already economical
prices have remained—and will continue to remain—exactly the same. Furthermore,
relative to the dehydration situation being addressed, impacts must not be
underestimated...especially when one considers that health workers and other front-
line, response-team personnel wearing hazmat suits will, ironically, likely become
dehydrated—a condition that can debilitate the human body and mind in a multitude
of ways.”

“We’re thrilled to partner with SOS and gift those in need this viable and
readily available dehydration avoidance and treatment beverage solution based on
science and testing that far exceeds ‘other’ electrolyte drinks and mixes on the
market,” said Sue Cushman, US National Aid Director of Global Empowerment
Mission. “We know that this Coronavirus-specific donation is an extension of SOS
Hydration’s overarching philanthropic work.” Indeed, the pay-it-forward-minded
company has previously donated product to Houston, Florida and the Virgin Islands

6
relating to hurricane recovery, and to CalFire related to fire emergencies. In fact, both
co-founders care deeply about protecting and serving the public, and in social
corporate responsibility, with one a medical doctor and the other a military
veteran...and both highly value-driven.Biology is the science that studies life and
living things, including the laws that govern the phenomena of life.

Every aspect of life from the smallest submicroscopic living particle to the
largest and most imposing of plant and animal species is included in the study of
biology. Biological study encompasses all that is known about any plant, animal,
microbe or other living thing of the past or present.

What is It

Comprehensive Reading. Personal Safety Protocol to Avoid Dehydration,

Overexertion, Hypo and Hyperthermia During MVPA Participation

As you engage in moderate to vigorous physical activity, you need to observe

some personal safety precautions to avoid certain conditions related to physical
activity participation. These conditions include dehydration, overexertion,
hypothermia, and hyperthermia.

Dehydration

This refers to excessive loss of water from the body, usually through
perspiration or sweating, urination, or evaporation.

During participation in physical activities, the body regulates its temperature

depending on the intensity of the activity. More frequently during moderate to
vigorous physical activities, the body perspires or sweats and you get thirsty.

Sweating. On a normal day, the body loses about 2.5 liters of water from the

lungs and skin, from urine and feces, and from perspiration. The body must
replace this through proper hydration. To offset fluid losses, it is suggested that 150
to 250ml of fluid should be taken every 15 minutes.

Thirst. Thirst is a sensation of dryness in the mouth and throat associated

with a desire for liquids. Maintaining water balance is an important consideration
during exercise. Physical activity results in increased heat production, and
evaporation of sweat from the skin allows the body to dissipate this heat and
maintain a normal body temperature. The amount of fluid lost as sweat varies
according to factors such as the intensity and duration of activity and the air
temperature or humidity.

7
 Overexertion or Overtraining

This refers to the detrimental cause of excessive training.

Some individuals engage in too much physical activity. Some exercisers and
athletes often push themselves too hard in their pursuit of high-level performance.
Thus, they are susceptible to a variety of hyperkinetic conditions known as
overload syndrome. This condition is characterized by fatigue, irritability, and sleep
problems, as well as increased risks for injuries.

In an over-trained status, performance is known to decline sharply and this

can cause individuals to train even harder. This dip in performance may be
mistaken for dip in physical effort so the exerciser or athlete increases the effort to
pull up the performance.

Hyperthermia

This is an alarming rise in body temperature, which is an effect of exercising

in a very humid environment. It sets the stage for heat stress and even heat stroke,
the potentially fatal collapse of the temperature-regulating mechanism.

Hypothermia

Excessively low body temperature, characterized by uncontrollable shivering,

loss of coordination, and mental confusion

This occurs when the body begins to lose heat faster than it can be
produced. Prolonged exertion leads to progressive muscular fatigue. As exposure
continues and additional body heat is lost, the cold reaches the brain. One loses
judgment and the ability to reason. Speech becomes slow and slurred and control
of the hands is lost.
