Hydration Lecture at DEMA 11/6

[dreamdive]

FYI: I will be giving a presentation on the issue of Hydration and Diving on Friday at 11 AM in Booth 1757 (Technical Diving Resource Center Stage).
What are the myths and the truths about hydration and DCS? Is the timing of hydration important? Can "overhydration" be an issue? What does science actually tell us. Can I have my cup of coffee before the dive?

This could be a great time for you to discuss the stupidity of drinking Coca cola on dive boats ( or other sugar drinks, including Gatorade), for the issue of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGE) causing inflammations in lining of blood vessels that could impact DCS....
