The Instituto Hidratação e Saúde (Hydration and Health Institute) is an independent panel of medical experts who have come together to provide factual comment on hydration and its importance for good health.
It is made up of members from a range of experiences including doctors, nutritionists, psychologists and anthropologists to give as broad a range of expertise on hydration as possible. The group meets to discuss and address issues surrounding hydration. It is supported by an educational grant from the Portuguese Soft Drinks Association, and is editorially independent.
