Oral I.V. and Warrior Wound Care are proud to have supported the 2013 Best Ranger Competition, which recently took place at Fort Benning, Georgia. Warrior Wound Care supplied Oral I.V. hydration solution to all 100 participants for the 30th anniversary of this grueling competition, which has evolved from one originally created to salute the best two-man “buddy” team in the Ranger Department at Fort Benning to determine the best two-man team from the entire United States Armed Forces. The Best Ranger Competition is a U.S. Army event and supported by The National Ranger Association, Inc.

Major Nathan M. Setka, Ranger Brigade Surgeon, stated in a letter of appreciation to Warrior Wound Care:

“During both the 2012 and 2013 competitions, Warrior Wound Care provided an individual aid kit featuring Oral I.V. rehydration formula to each competitor, as well as Oral I.V. packages for the medical staff and support cadre. The 2012 event was the first time that there were no reported heat or dehydration injuries or illness. In the 2013 Best Ranger Competition for the second year employing Oral I.V., the competitors suffered no dehydration or heat-related injuries during this most grueling and physically exhaustive event, open only to the most prepared and elite soldiers of the U.S. Armed Forces.”

The Oral I.V. proprietary formula is based on the science of hydration, one of the most fundamental drivers of human performance. Oral I.V. provides the critical electrolytes and minerals the body needs and nothing else – no caffeine, sugars, stimulants, preservatives, additives or artificial flavors. Due to their crystalloid form, the electrolytes in Oral I.V. are absorbed in the body directly upon contact with mucous membranes, creating an immediately noticeable improvement in performance for demanding operations and long-term or explosive short-term exercise. Oral I.V. restores proper blood sugar levels and promotes correct blood volume, resulting in higher energy levels, heightened concentration and alertness, faster recovery from injury or strenuous exercise, and much more.

The Oral I.V. product is now available via GSA Advantage, the government’s premier online shopping system, at www.gsaadvantage.gov. Customers can also purchase Oral I.V. under the Warrior Wound Care GSA schedule (GSA Contract V797D-30120) by contacting sales@warriorwoundcare.com.

Warrior Wound Care’s literature on their Oral IV product claims that it contains a “worldwide patent pending formula” of “Crystalloid Electrolytes and essential trace minerals.” The point is to get some electrolytes into you and restore your natural pH level.

So if you’ve figured out that Oral IV is great for dehydration the next thing you are going to wonder is how it is at counteracting one of the most common forms of dehydration for the male aged 21 and up; the hangover. While I fortunately haven’t suffered one in some time I did get a serious case of the crud during the whirlwind of trade shows that was known as September. I decided to try Oral IV as part of my recovery regimen on one particularly unsavory Sunday morning and sure enough, after drinking it straight from the ampoule, I felt better. Much better. Ok, so my experience is far from scientific but I’ve heard from several guys that have taken it after over-imbibing the night before and they say it worked for them too.

It’s all about restoring some natural order at the cellular level and it seems, from my experience that Oral IV’s mixture of electrolytes works.

Packed in sets of 4 individual soft ampoules, the top twists right off. There’s no glass to break. They just got a new shipment in so get yours.
