actually A) i''m cheap and get the equate version, so its like 3 dollars for a 6 pack... B) maybe high sodium? but if you have enough water through out the day, it actually helps your electrolyte balance.. .the fats? .5 sat fats... yeah saturated fats are bad but for a good pre workout drink for some basic energy and something in my stomach... it snot bad.. Hmm... no cholesterol... decent potassium but i'm taking a mulitvit.. ok somewhat high sugars but hey it comes w/ fiber and i'm gonna burn them off... and protein? not my only source...
