    Gatorade? Is it in you????? NO ME!

    I have always liked the taste of gatorade but have recently given it up because of the sugar in it. Do you guys drink gatorade? I think there must be healthier ways to get electrolytes and stuff...

    Am I doing something wrong?

    I dont drink it either. I watched a tv show on health channel or something about how its either worse or as bad as coke is on your teeth.

    Tastes great with an awesome marketing tale behind it, but a true recipe for disaster imo.

    I wouldnt say crap, it has uses.

    When ur on a run over 5 miles, you need to hydrate.

    It can be utilized during pwo for you guys who do the unproven High GI pwo carb thing.

    Exactly. I would only use it during endurance training and yes, it is hell on your teeth. I should know.

    i heard that this stuff called emergency is a good way to get electrolytes. it comes in a powder you can get at the grocery store.

    gatorade is mainly sucrose, which is half fructose, not the best thing for you.

    there is a company called GBVS global beverage solutions and they own a company called Rudy beverages who have come out with a drink to compete with gatorade powerade and all the rest and the best thing is its sugar free and taste great the other great thing is that the owner of the company is that guy Rudy from the football movie. Its only in major cities and stuff right now but it is catching on quick and growing.
