For a harmonic function u on Euclidean space, this note shows that its gradient is essentially determined by the geometry of its level hypersurfaces. Specifically, the factor by which |grad(u)| changes along a gradient flow is completely determined by the mean curvature of the level hypersurfaces intersecting the flow.
