Millennials & Gen Z Value Health & Wellness

The largest generation in the American workforce, millennials and Get Zs are health-conscious employees who want to work at companies that care about their well-being. These generations are more aware of mental and physical health, fatigue and stress.

Younger workers prefer modern benefits such as company-based wellness programs. And let’s face it; the couch potato lifestyle isn’t going to cut it much longer.

Your younger workers engage in long hours of screen time and suffer from health issues such as digital eye strain, dry eyes, muscular aches caused by sitting, mental fatigue, and stress.

The buffet of offerings available in campus cafeterias across is evidence that healthy snacks and drinks are a great benefit that employees can see and enjoy immediately.

Better Health and Workplace Productivity

Now, many companies are adding these options via home delivery for remote workers. But many food options are high in sugars, saturated fats and sodium and can cause employees to feel more tired and become less productive. Not to mention that it’s hard to find a universal product that could meet the requirements of the diverse needs of your workforce.

But what if there was a great tasting option that targets employees’ health issues such as dry eyes, digital eye strain, and boosts productivity?

Well, there is. It’s Hydrus. Hydrus is a great-tasting, refreshing daily hydration drink that helps employees manage symptoms such as dry eyes, headaches, muscle aches, digital eye strain, and fatigue caused by dehydration.

Studies have shown that dehydration can significantly impact workplace productivity, especially those working on a computer or tablet for long hours. Research has shown that even a body water loss of 1-2%, which is considered mild dehydration, impairs cognitive performance. A 2013 study showed that drinking water resulted in a 14% increase in productivity.

The Hydrus Edge

Unlike other hydration products, Hydrus is formulated with Nanosomesā„¢ or small hollow sphere-shaped molecules that encapsulate electrolytes and water made of phospholipids. These tiny molecules are similar to the material found in all cell walls within the body and help disperse water evenly throughout the body. They also require no digestive activity to take place because absorption begins instantly in the mouth.

Hydrus is sugar-free and sweetened with Stevia, so it will not make your employees crash like coffee and other sugary options that they might be reaching for to fight their afternoon slump.
