I’m not eating and I need to keep my electrolytes up. I’ve been trying different drinks and there pretty much all awful. The best I’ve had so far is pineapple coconut water. The worst is Powerade Zero fruit punch.

It seems like whatever stuff they put in there in these drinks is the problem because many of them have this horrible bitter taste they try to hide with flavoring.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

And yes, I know Brawndo has electrolytes. Very droll.

    The old ones in glass bottles… talk about god’s nectar. On a hot day as kid nothing beat it.

      You could just feel the electrolytes being replenished, LOL. Plastic bottles are still fine, but it’s not quite the same.

        The original ones, yes. But modern Gatorade is just sugar water, with very little electrolytes

          I think you’ve confused my 12-year-old self with someone who knew or cared about nutrition or food science.
