The record, in brief

Strengths: a genuine 550 mg zero-sugar sodium dose, fully printed. Cons: light potassium (140 mg) and magnesium (20 mg), no named testing, and a near-$2-a-serving price. Note the Daily line covered here is separate from Waterboy’s higher-sodium recovery product.

How we score Waterboy

Every Waterboy product is scored on the same public 100-point methodology as every other brand — formula, dosage & label transparency, testing, value, experience and brand record — with every fact dated and sourced.

Frequently asked questions

Is Waterboy Daily Hydration worth it?

For a clean single-purpose sodium hit, it’s fine; but at 57/100 the light supporting minerals and premium price mean Earth Energy (65) or LMNT (70) give you more for the money. Its worth-it page does the math.

Is this the daily or hangover Waterboy?

This file covers the Daily Hydration line at 550 mg sodium. Waterboy also sells a higher-sodium recovery/hangover product with different pricing and dose.
