Sweating, as we know, is a common human trait. We all perspire when we do any kind of physical exercise. We know that our body releases water and sodium when we perspire. What we do not know is how much fluid or sodium we lose during a workout session. Are you someone who wants to know that and improve your hydration game? Popular energy-drink brand Gatorade has come up with a new product to help you with that.

Dubbed the “Gatorade Gx Sweat Patch”, it is essentially a stick-on body-patch that absorbs your sweat and tests it to deliver post-workout insights and tips. The patch comes in a pack of two and works in collaboration with a dedicated app, which is sadly available only on iOS at the moment.

Following the stick-on process, the patch absorbs all the fluid released by your body into its embedded zig-zag lines. These lines then turn into hues of orange and purple based on the composition of the fluids. So, after your workout session, you can quickly scan the patch with the dedicated iOS app to get a detailed report of your “sweat test”.

So, if you are an athlete or someone who works out a lot, then I am sure the Gatorade Gx Sweat Patch would be a nice buy for you. You can get it from Gatorade’s official online store for $24.99 (pack of two), which is around Rs. 1,825.
