The virus on all our minds today is COVID-19, but there are many common viruses that our bodies are constantly fending off. MX3's unique point-of-care testing system can help you combat viral illnesses, such as the common cold, influenza, bronchitis, or the stomach flu.
Any time your body is fighting an illness, especially a virus, hydration is critical for recovery.
How do you monitor hydration levels? The MX3 Hydration Testing System makes it simple with rapid and easy to interpret hydration measurements. Knowing your hydration status means you can act to ensure you are drinking enough fluid to maximize health and recovery.
How Hydration Helps Heal the Body
This video from Abbott Labs explains why the body needs to be hydrated — especially when you’re sick.
Hydration has many health benefits. Staying hydrated:
- Keeps your electrolyte levels in check so your body can heal
- Helps regulate body temperature and can reduce fever
- Supports your digestion and the absorption of nutrients from food
- Can help keep your airways clear to improve your breathing
- Helps your body keep oxygen and blood flowing
- Improves brain function
Because Knowledge is Power
At MX3, we believe that unlocking knowledge about personal hydration and electrolyte balance can benefit public health. This knowledge is essential for keeping people in at-risk environments safe and for helping those experiencing health problems get better.
The MX3 Hydration Testing System uses a single, hand-held device to run non-invasive tests with immediate results. These tests can tell you how much liquid to drink and what kind of beverage will best replace the electrolytes you’ve lost.
By putting the technology to understand hydration in the palm of your hand, you have the power to improve your health and create healthier communities.
