I used to drink Gatorade up till about 18ish yrs ago, although I could only drank one flavor because of the coloring added. They stopped making that flavor (grape "rain" - which had very little coloring in it). Now it's a no-go for me. If I drink it, my guts get really upset. Nothing to do with electrolytes - just the coloring.
And the fructose syrup I’m sure if you drank pedialyte you’d feel better than Gatorade as I did whenever I cut weight for wrestling I hated the way Gatorade makes me feel it’s gross and bad for you
@Jack Pease That's Cool!! I remember a pink "rain" as well, but it was too sweet. Still, Ya could SEE through it because it had less coloring!! That's why i could stomach it. I remember when it was discontinued. I went around buying all I could, & I ran out around 3 months after it was gone from the shelves. I'd GLADLY pay $10 for one right now!! -LOL!! Peace!!
@BAN Only once (YEARS ago), but I can't say for sure the cause because I was in Mexico at the time. But I HAD drank a DARK Reddish colored Gatorade (some weird fruit flavor) the night B4. It WAS Gatorade, but I'm sure it was MADE in Mexico. I was also a bit plugged up. It freaked me out, & I drank no more, & it didn't happen again. I have not drank any dark colored ones (Any Really) HERE for SO LONG. I'll say this: In the end, it didn't make it that far!! If I drank it, it would cause me gut pains & come back up! IDK if any of that helps you - but if that is happening to You, I'd say STOP (#1) & tell your doctor. Could be a problem. Peace!!
No, unless you're a serious athlete doing a serious athlete thing. For the rest of us, it's like eating a handful of salt. 270 mgs of sodium per 20 oz of drink is bonkers. Someone tell the Old Redhead that he needs that crap even less than he needs booze and cigars. Smarten up, Billo.
Precisely backwards about Gatorade. Gatorade has barely any electrolytes. If you drank Gatorade all day you wouldn't piss out any excess electrolytes because you would have consumed almost nothing.

It's what plants crave
It has the electrolytes plants crave
I like the "0" version of gatorade, Funny I don't like diet sodas though.

I completely forgot about grape rain, that was the only Gatorade I ever enjoyed. Thanks for that memory haha
Do you shit green if you consume the other flavours?

They fed us salt pills at football practice back in the 60s
Ah yeah I heard about that
Im not from the 60s though

Electrolytes are a thing, salt is an electrolyte
Thirstaid comes after Wednesday.

Idiocracy I see 😎

Can you say, "Hypertension"?
@@musicloverme3993 Indeed I can; it gave me a stroke, in fact
@@classiclife7204 I gave you a thumbs up for replying, not for the stroke. I hope that you FULLY recovered!
@@musicloverme3993 I have! I was fortunate.
Doctor recommended it but I asked why not coconut water? They replied not everyone has access to coconut water.
Every word wasn't a word, before it was uttered the first time...
Its called having a vocabulary! sheesh, I knew exactly what acumen meant when I was in 3rd grade for goodness sake.
The three items that you listed for the morons are table salt, bananas, and milk. Keep up the Good.
Tldr: You need electrolytes
You don't need anywhere near as much as there is in Gatorade. Most of it goes out with your pee
...sorry, Bill

Get a cramp you’ll beg for that Gatorade.
I just put salt in my soda lol
Just drink a coconut water
Idiocracy
Coca-Cola's Powerade was better, until some sissy-ass citizen's group forced them to remove the flame retardant. It was never as good. Lost it's bite.
Without Patrice O'Neal Bill sucks
