Drink More Water with FREE Drink Alarm iPhone App

July 20, 2011 - PRLog -- It is common knowledge that drinking the recommended amount of water every day is good for our health and prevents the adverse side effects of dehydration including headaches, sluggish digestive system and bad skin; it is also essential for anyone on a diet to drink plenty. This new, free, handy app has been launched to help you get hydrated and experience the benefits of staying that way!

By entering just a few details, the clever iPhone app’s inbuilt calculator provides a personal assessment of how much water you need to drink on a daily basis. It will then monitor your intake of water throughout the day and remind you with a pop up and a subtle alarm when you need to reach for another glass in order to reach your target amount. The Drink Alarm is a tool to change your drinking habits for the better.

This easy to use app also takes into consideration how much exercise that you are intending to do (if any) throughout the specified period and allows you to select the type of drinking vessel (e.g. pint glass or sports bottle) that you will be drinking from in order to accurately display the target number of drinks you require. Catering for iPhone users who are ‘on the go’ there is an option to change the type of drinking vessel that is being used throughout the day and will re-calculate accordingly, without affecting your drinking history.

With more than one in four people in the UK trying to lose weight ‘most of the time’* this iPhone app will ensure that those who are dieting will stay hydrated. When losing weight, the initial weight loss is primarily due to loss of water so it is important to ensure you keep ‘topped up.’

Being more aware of how much water you should drink on a daily basis, will encourage you to drink more regularly and keep you on track to stay hydrated and by viewing your progress on graphs you can see your daily, weekly and monthly hydration at a glance with the WCD Drink Alarm. There is also an option to connect the app to Facebook and/or Twitter accounts to share results with friends and colleagues.
