Staying hydrated means staying healthy 🙂 That’s why you should drink between 1,5 and 3 liters of fluid every day, depending on your level of activity and exposure to sunlight.

When you are out in nature, there are unfortunately also insects that may sting you. The bite away is an electronic device for chemical-free external treatment for insect bites/stings such as mosquitoes, wasp, and bees. Thanks to it, a minor insect bite or irritant does not need to turn into an ongoing issue. It is simple to use: by pressing one of the two buttons just once (3 – 5 seconds) a temperature of around 124°F is reached and maintained for the selected time, providing relief from itching and swelling within seconds.
