Objective: To assess the intake of water and all other beverages in children, adolescents and adults. Methods: Three thousand six hundred eleven children (8 ± 2 years), 8,109 adolescents (13 ± 2 years) and 16,276 adults (40 ± 14 years) (47% men) were recruited in 15 cross-sectional surveys (liquid intake across 7 days, Liq.In7 study) and completed a 7-day fluid-specific record to assess total fluid intake (TFI), where TFI was defined as the sum of drinking water and other type of beverages. Results: The median TFI was 1.2, 1.2 and 1.8 liters/day in children, adolescents and adults respectively, with important differences observed between countries. Only 39% of children, 25% of adolescents and 51% of adults met the European Food Safety Authority adequate intake (AI) recommendations of water from fluids. In the surveys of Spain, France, Belgium, Germany, Turkey, Iran, Indonesia and China, water was the major contributor (47-78%) to TFI. In the adult surveys of UK, Poland, Japan and Argentina, hot beverages were the highest contributor to TFI. The fluid intake of children and adolescents in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay was characterized by a contribution of juices and sweet beverages that was as important as the contribution of water to TFI. Conclusion: Given that a relatively high proportion of subjects, especially children and adolescents, failed to meet the recommended AI of water from fluids and that water intake was not the highest contributor to TFI in all countries, undertaking actions to increase water intake are warranted.

The provision of exogenous carbohydrate (CHO) in the form of energy gels is regularly practiced among endurance and team sport athletes. However, in those instances where athletes ingest suboptimal fluid intake, consuming gels during exercise may lead to gastrointestinal (GI) problems when the nutritional composition of the gel is not aligned with promoting gastric emptying. Accordingly, the aim of the current study was to quantify the degree of diversity in nutritional composition of commercially available CHO gels intended for use in the global sports nutrition market. We surveyed 31 product ranges (incorporating 51 flavor variants) from 23 brands (Accelerade, CNP, High5, GU, Hammer, Maxim, Clif, USN, Mule, Multipower, Nectar, Carb-Boom, Power Bar, Lucozade, Shotz, TORQ, Dextro, Kinetica, SiS, Zipvit, Maxifuel, Gatorade and Squeezy). Gels differed markedly in serving size (50 ± 22 g: 29–120), energy density (2.34 ± 0.7 kcal/g: 0.83–3.40), energy content (105 ± 24 kcal: 78–204), CHO content (26 ± 6 g: 18–51) and free sugar content (9.3 ± 7.0 g: 0.6–26.8). Most notably, gels displayed extreme variation in osmolality (4424 ± 2883 mmol/kg: 303–10,135) thereby having obvious implications for both GI discomfort and the total fluid intake likely required to optimize CHO delivery and oxidation. The large diversity of nutritional composition of commercially available CHO gels illustrate that not all gels should be considered the same. Sports nutrition practitioners should therefore consider the aforementioned variables to make better-informed decisions regarding which gel product best suits the athlete’s specific fueling and hydration requirements.

The study objectives were to analyze the food and beverages contribution to the total fluid intake, and the sign of mild dehydration of school age children. The cross-sectional study was applied to 78 boys and 78 girls of elementary school students in Bogor City. Two days food recall was applied to estimate fluid intake. The fluid intake was a summation of various food and beverages. The result showed beside of plain water, most of the school children used to consumed milk and tea (>70%) at home. The total fluid intake was 2283 mL for boys and 2024 mL for girls, and its contribution was 21 percent from food (430-490 mL) and 78 percent from beverages (1600-1800 mL). There are 67.4 percent boys and 62.8 percent girls suffered mild dehydration with minimum three physical signs of dehydration. There are still 18.6 percent boys and 3.5 percent girls that their fluid intake below 100% of the requirement.

The (pro) renin receptor (PRR) is a key component of the renin-angiotensin system that is highly expressed in the brain. We previously showed that the neuronal PRR deletion attenuates deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt induced hypertension. However, the mechanism underlying remains unclear. To test our hypothesis that PRR is involved in the regulation of sodium appetite during DOCA-salt hypertension, we used a neuron-specific PRR knockout (PRRKO) mouse model generated using the Cre-LoxP system. The PRRKO and their wildtype controls (WT) were implanted with 50 mg DOCA pellet with free access to regular water and 0.9 % saline as the drinking solution. Blood pressure (BP) was monitored by telemetry system in conscious free moving mice. The fluid intake and urine output were monitored along 21 days of DOCA-Salt treatment. The BP is significantly lower in PRRKO compared with WT mice following 21 days of DOCA-salt treatment (112 ± 2 vs. 134 ± 7 mmHg, P= 0.0186). Interestingly, we found that saline intake (27.8 ± 1.8 vs. 15.9 ± 1.2 ml/day, P=0.0007) and total fluid intake (31.1 ± 1.9 vs. 21.1 ± 1.4 ml/day, P=0.003) were higher; while the regular water intake was lower (3.4 ± 0.6 vs. 5.2 ± 0.3 ml/day, P=0.03) in WT compared to PRRKO mice. PRR deletion in the neurons reduced sodium appetite presented as the ratio of saline intake over total fluid intake (0.75 ± 0.016 vs. 0.89 ± 0.019, P=0.0005), as well as total sodium intake (2.45 ± 0.19 vs. 4.28 ± 0.28 mmol/day, P=0.0007) compared with WT mice at the end of the protocol. In addition, the urinary sodium excretion was lower (13.3±1.17 vs. 20±1.17 mmol/day, P<0.0001), but not potassium excretion (0.64 ± 0.028 vs. 0.56 ± 0.05 mmol/day, P=0.1291) in PRRKO compared with WT mice; however, there is no difference in urine sodium and potassium concentrations. Furthermore, plasma vasopressin level (19.0 ± 2.7 vs. 33.6 ± 2.7 pg/ml, P=0.0037) is lower in the PRRKO compared with WT mice at the end of DOCA-salt treatment. In summary, PRR deletion in the neurons reduced sodium appetite, circulating vasopressin level, and attenuated the development of DOCA-salt induced hypertension. Taken together, the present findings suggest that PRR regulates the BP and plays a key role in salt-sensitive hypertension, at least in part, by modulating sodium appetite.
