Dehydration occurs when the amount of water and electrolytes in your body reaches a low level. Dehydration can be caused by:
Once you experience dehydration, your body slows down and you may begin to experience dehydration symptoms1.
80% of Australians suffer from dehydration symptoms yet only 35% recognize the key symptoms2. Symptoms of dehydration include:
Less than 1 in 10 Australians (6%) associate concentration and mental impairment with dehydration, even though it’s a common symptom for most (56%)2.
Everyone is at risk of dehydration. However, babies and children are at higher risk of becoming dehydrated compared to adults especially if they are experiencing vomiting, fever or diarrhoea3. Elderly people are also at greater risk due to declining kidney function, chronic illness and limited mobility3.
To overcome dehydration, you need to replenish your body with water and electrolytes. Water is the most common solution where the recommended daily water intake is 2-3L a day for adults4. Sports drinks can replenish lost electrolytes, while you may also consider fruit juices and soft drinks for hydration purposes. BIOLyte, an Oral Rehydration Solution, can help replenish both water and electrolytes.
Rehydrate AND restore your gut back to normal with our revolutionary BIOLyte Solutions. Our revolutionary formula does more than just rehydrate – it reduces vomiting and diarrhoea and supports your immune system health.
Becoming sick can cause quite an inconvenience to your day. Diarrhoea or vomiting, or an illness causing fever and sweats, can lead to dehydration.
Have you experienced food poisoning before? We know that it's not the greatest situation to be in. When food poisoning occurs, you may experience symptoms such as diarrhoea and vomiting. It not only leaves us feeling weak and dehydrated, it also disturbs the healthy flora in our gut, which balances our digestive system.
This is where BIOLyte can come in help get your gut health back to normal. The winning BIOLyte formula contains a Prebiotic that helps stimulate the healthy bacteria, which restores healthy gut function.
Plus, BIOLyte replenishes the Zinc in our systems, which is a key mineral affected by diarrhoea and vomiting.
By being dehydrated, you are reducing your ability to perform at peak performance levels.
With low osmolality, BIOLyte is able to provide faster absorption of electrolytes which results in rapid rehydration. BIOLyte also has a 1:1 concentration of glucose to sodium, resulting in fast rehydration.
The Prebiotic and Zinc can help support your immune system health and aid in muscle recovery, respectively. By replenishing your lost electrolytes, BIOLyte can help you quickly get back to your best.
Our scientifically-formulated product is available in three delicious flavours including Red Grape, Orange & Green Apple.
BIOLyte contains glucose, which is an essential active ingredient in the BIOLyte Oral Rehydration Therapy. The glucose is formulated at an optimum level to facilitate the absorption of sodium and water in the small intestine and therefore assists fast rehydration.
BIOLyte is sweetened using a natural sweetener extracted from plant leaf (Stevia).
All BIOLyte products are gluten and wheat free. They are also lactose and dairy free.
All BIOLyte Oral Rehydration Solutions (ORS) are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
BIOLyte ORS works by replacing water and salts lost from your body through sweat, diarrhoea or vomiting. BIOLyte aids in rapid rehydration and can help the return of normal stool consistency.
They can be attributed to the handpicked ingredients:
BIOLyte is scientifically formulated with a delicate balance of glucose and sodium to achieve optimum electrolyte absorption and fast rehydration. Adding fluid other than water (such as juice, milk, lemonade) may upset the chemical balance and compromise the medicine’s efficacy.
