HydraCoach Intelligent Water Bottle
The basics
The HydraCoach is no ordinary water bottle – it's billed as a"hydration monitor". Essentially that means it's a water bottle that contains some additional tech that automatically calculates, monitors and displays instant feedback on your personal fluid consumption.
Simply enter your weight and type and duration of exercise and the Hydracoach the will give you a reading for your water consumption for the day.

An outstanding device, as a memeber of the Army working in temp over 50 at times, this water bottle would help me and my mates keep hydrated allowing us to do our job. Great idea.

I at first wanted this item and then soon after show i bought one. This is a very good product and good quality. It keeps a good track of the water intake. takes a bit of getting used to setting it up but will have it mastered in no time.

I also bought this after it was tested by Suzi tested it on the show. It keeps track of what I am drinking really well, it is taking a bit of getting used with regards to what the different menus mean but would recommend it!

I was so thrilled to hear of the HydraCoach water bottle. As an athlete and someone who consistantly does not drink enough water, I thought it was a genius tool. However, the plastic used for the HydraCoach bottle is made with a plastic compound called Bisphenol-A (number 7 in the recycling triangle). This plastic is used to make hard plastic products like the well-known Naglene bottles. Bisphenol-A is a known to be carcinogenic and particularly linked to prostate cancer and may even interfere with the effectiveness of prostate cancer medications. The Environmental Working Group writes, "Bisphenol-A is associated with a number of health problems and diseases that are on the rise in the U.S. population, including breast and prostate cancer and infertility. Given widespread human exposure to BPA and hundreds of studies showing its adverse effects, the FDA and EPA must act quickly to revise safe levels for BPA exposure based on the latest science on the low-dose toxicity of the chemical." I ask the makers of the HydraCoach to PLEASE make a bottle used with Aluminum rather than this toxic plastic. I really love your product and even think the conserns about the deliberate sipping required to use it is no big deal. It really is a genius idea.
