It's said that when you feel thirsty, it's a sign that you're already mildly dehydrated, but real-time hydration monitors like Geca can encourage consistent, healthy hydration throughout the day by offering reminders to drink water.
Designed to stop dehydration before it starts, Geca works with an app so that users can fill out their profile and get calibrated so that the system better understands their body. After the setup process, a user's Geca watch tells them when they need water and how much they need.
This hydration wearable is useful for reducing headaches and fatigue, enhancing mood and memory, supporting more restful nights of sleep and encouraging healthy aging—which is especially helpful since one's sense of thirst degrades with age.
