Our Story

Sponge Hydration was founded by Nathan Katzaroff and Christopher Miglio, driven by their personal experiences and deep understanding of the transformative power of hydration.

Nathan's Journey

Nathan Katzaroff’s commitment to health and wellness began with a profound personal challenge. His grandmother suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, and Nathan witnessed the devastating effects this condition had on her. He saw firsthand the suffering and the loss of independence that came with the disease. The possibility that his mother might face a similar fate deeply concerned him.

Knowing that there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's, Nathan resolved to take proactive steps to prevent disease and promote health. This quest led him to explore a range of healthy lifestyle habits and holistic approaches to wellness. His journey of discovery included extensive research into how everyday actions, like hydration, can have significant impacts on health.

As an athlete, Nathan began incorporating these practices into his own life. The results were remarkable; he experienced a dramatic improvement in his athletic performance and overall well-being. This transformation reinforced his belief in the body’s ability to heal and optimize itself when given the right conditions. Nathan became a staunch advocate for natural health and preventive care, inspired by the belief that simple daily habits could lead to profound long-term benefits.

Christopher's Inspiration

Christopher Miglio’s passion for hydration and health is rooted in his experiences with his grandfather, who suffered from dementia. Christopher noticed that his grandfather’s cognitive function, alertness, and orientation were significantly better when he was properly hydrated. In stark contrast, periods of dehydration exacerbated the symptoms of dementia, leaving his grandfather confused and less aware.

This striking difference was both eye-opening and heartbreaking for Christopher. He realized how crucial proper hydration is for maintaining cognitive health, especially in the elderly. Watching his grandfather struggle with the debilitating effects of dementia, Christopher was motivated to prevent others from experiencing similar pain. His advocacy for proper hydration became a personal mission, driven by a desire to enhance the quality of life for his loved ones and those around him.

Together, Nathan and Christopher channeled their personal experiences and professional skills into creating Sponge Hydration. They are united by their commitment to empowering people to take control of their health through better hydration and lifestyle choices.
