    article links to a yahoo version of 2019 CNN which links to a 2016 study with a URL resulting in a redirect to the new standalone website for the journal now-declared-independence instead of a DOI I had to rescue from the archives which now links to the ScienceDirect hosting of the article instead: https://doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.115.114769 (Thankfully open (archive) access)

    In summary, the present study describes a novel tool to enable the objective assessment of the effectiveness of beverages to maintain hydration status. The BHI is reproducible and the pattern of response for a range of commonly consumed beverages is consistent with what is known about the effects of their constituents on water balance.

      So they’re telling us you need longer to digest things which aren’t pure water - a shocking result! But I strongly doubt that running on a hot day while drinking milk is a good idea

        I don’t think digesting and water absorption are the same thing. Hydration is absorbing the water and digestion is processing what’s left besides the water.
