Topical sodium bicarbonate loading as an intervention for tactical dehydration

We are seeking to adapt our flagship product PR Lotion to solve the critical and widespread issue of tactical dehydration among aircrew. Tactical dehydration is the practice of limiting fluid intake to reduce the need to void the bladder in flight. Tactical dehydration risks lives and aircraft by reducing cognitive ability in flight due to dehydration. We propose adapting PR Lotion, which is known to cause water retention, into a hydration intervention with a full protocol for how users can tactically hydrate before missions without increasing the need to urinate.
