My husband & I are loving this post workouts. Light flavors that are not too strong and love all 3 flavors but strawberry is my fav!
I love DASH Hydrate! All the flavors are fantastic, but my personal favorite is Strawberry. What sets DASH Hydrate apart is its lack of sugar, great taste, and excellent mixing/dissolving properties.
This is by far the best hydration product I have used. The blue raspberry is good and the Italian Lemon Ice is awesome. I can’t keep my family’s hands off of it!
Signs of dehydration for Warehouse Workers
Dizziness
Feeling lightheaded or unsteady, especially when standing up or moving around quickly, makes operating equipment or lifting heavy loads more dangerous.
Fatigue
Feeling unusually tired or sluggish during a regular workday. Dehydration makes tasks feel harder and saps your overall energy.
Confusion
Difficulty concentrating, remembering tasks, or making quick decisions. This can lead to mistakes and safety concerns in the warehouse.
Muscle cramps
Aches, cramps, or tightness in muscles, especially during exertion. This can make it harder to lift, carry, and perform repetitive warehouse tasks.
Warehouse Worker Hydration FAQ: Your Top Questions Answered
How much water should you drink while working in a warehouse?
The recommendation is that during warm or hot weather employees drink four 8-ounce glasses of water, or a total of one quart per hour, throughout the entire work shift. Easy access to sufficient potable drinking water throughout the work shift encourages employees to drink.
What is the OSHA recommendation for proper hydration?
The general guideline to follow is one cup of water for every 20 pounds of body weight. However, there are a number of factors that influence hydration requirements, including medications, temperature and humidity levels, and physical activity or exertion.
How can you ensure your warehouse workers stay hydrated during their shifts?
One of the simplest and most effective ways to ensure your warehouse workers stay hydrated is to provide them with easy access to water throughout the facility. You can do this by installing water dispensers, coolers, or fountains in strategic locations, such as near workstations, break rooms, and restrooms.
