Take the Guesswork out of Managing Hydration
The new Salhy test is an innovative solution to measuring personal hydration

Rapid

Convenient

Portable

A simple to use, saliva-based test that provides hydration results in minutes

  • Real time feedback on hydration status.
  • Multiple indicators provide hydration insights - fluids, electrolytes and more.
  • Track hydration over time, compare to prior test results.
  • Share hydration results with others / digital dashboards for groups
  • Great for sports people, coaches and worker health & safety teams

Understanding hydration has never been this easy

Rapid

Test takes seconds to complete, receive your results in 2 minutes.

On-the-Go

Phone app scans your test result wherever you are, including locations with no mobile reception.

Simply place your tongue on the test point

The Salhy test captures a small amount of saliva

The combined hydration indicators are easily read

by your smartphone app, providing a fast and on-the-spot understanding of your hydration status.

Each indicator provides unique insight into your hydration

from overall fluids to electrolyte concentration and even dehydration-related stresses.

When should I use the Salhy test?

There are many occasions you can use the Salhy personal hydration test. Here are some examples:

Baseline Testing

Establish a baseline when you are optimally hydrated (called eu-hydrated). Compare any future tests to your baseline. For more about baseline testing click here.

Pre workout

Great for checking hydration before starting an intensive workout or prior to a work shift

During activity

Test during a work shift break or half-time at a sports game. Gauge how well your fluid / electrolyte strategies are performing.

Recovery

Post activity test to understand how well your hydration has recovered. Check if you are back to your optimum hydration 'baseline'.

The Salhy app records each test, allowing you to track your results over time

The problem with other methods

The Salhy test offers many benefits over the traditional methods of measuring hydration such as a blood test, measuring body mass change or a urine test.

Invasive
  • Blood testing requiring needles and blood samples.
  • Urine testing is messy, invasive and unpopular.
  • Body Mass change is typically measured when stripped down to minimal clothing.
Complex
  • Blood testing requires specialist equipment and medical professionals.
  • Body Mass change calculations require complex pre-post measurements, precision scales and calculations to account for toileting and fluid/food consumption.
  • Urine specific gravity typically uses specialist refractometry equipment.
Slow
  • Blood testing requires lab analysis and does not give immediate results.
  • Body Mass change requires before and after testing so isn’t immediate.
  • None of the methods provide a digital result for immediate sharing with others (sports coaches, H&S managers)
