GPMD Podcast- Hydration Protocol for Elite Athletes

GPMD Podcast- Hydrate to Dominate, the Kids Edition

Dr. Beth and Nurse KC break down pediatric hydration — why children are more vulnerable, how dehydration often shows up as behavior changes, and when plain water isn’t enough. Learn practical signs to watch for, sodium guidance for sports, and simple strategies to keep kids hydrated and performing their best.

GPMD Podcast- Spring Into Hydration!

Spring dehydration is sneaky—temperature swings, increased outdoor activity, allergies, caffeine, and alcohol change your fluid needs before summer arrives. In this episode Nurse KCand Dr. Beth explain why spring is the perfect time to start intentional hydration, introduce the new "Hydration Crimes of Spring" segment, and walk through common pitfalls (golfing, youth sports sidelines, festivals, gardening) where people quietly drift into dehydration. They recommend practical steps: use the GPMD drop system to build a habit now, monitor urine color and symptoms, replace electrolytes as needed, and adapt hydration to changing activity and weather so you can “hydrate to dominate” into summer.

GPMD Podcast- Why Is There Protein In My Hydration?

Dr. Beth and Nurse KC break down hydration confusion and explain two main intestinal transport pathways: glucose-sodium (SGLT1) and amino acid/peptide-assisted routes (including PEPT1). They compare efficiency, use cases, and where sugar-free, amino acid-based products fit in the Gut Performance MD drop system, offering practical guidance on choosing the right hydration strategy for different needs.

GPMD Podcast-Individualized Hydration for the Win, Introducing the Drops System!

Dr. Beth and KC introduce the Drops System, a simple, physiology-based way to plan hydration. Learn to hydrate intentionally with three tiers—Flow (baseline), Activate (faster absorption), and Perform (replacement for sweat)—so your body actually uses the fluids you drink. Start your plan each morning, pace intake throughout the day, and tailor drops to your activity and environment. This episode turns hydration from guesswork into an individualized, practical routine.

GPMD Podcast-Hydration Confusion, It’s Real!

Hydration Confusion breaks down why “drink more water” is incomplete and explains the difference between maintenance hydration and rehydration after sweat, illness, or endurance activity. The episode covers oral rehydration solutions (ORS), the SGLT1 sodium–glucose transport pathway, sugar-free alternatives like amino acid co-transport, and practical guidance on choosing the right hydration strategy for your situation.
