Electrolytes Explained: Is Gatorade Beneficial And When Should You Drink It

Today I went cycling with pros. I only brought water because Im a beginner. Had three cramps. Somehow my brain told me to stop at a near by convenience store and buy Gatorade. This thing is a healing potion. Still happy I finished a 100km ride. Didn't realize how much the body needed this until today.

[@dtla5052]

I just can't see how a tiny bit of salt, smallest amount of potassium, a tons of sugar and dye can replenish so much. Gatorade definitely works

[@PublicGuest-NA1]

Lol tiny bit look at the nuttition facts.

[@elaw636]

I’m sure you don’t need another person to tell you this. This video is awesome. I am sort of used to people in all forms talking about electrolytes and physiology and missing the true information by about 50%. From what I know in my study of medicine you are absolutely correct in everything you’ve said in this video. I’m sure the other content you put out has the same level of knowledge behind it and it is truly refreshing. Thank you

Not Bo I noticed the slapping. He's probably not nervous but the high energy from the Gatorade.

[@death2pc]

I strongly suggest diluting Gatorade by a good 70% - to - 80% with water. Far more beneficial when done this way.

[@yassers2382]

ohhh so put 20% gatorade and 80% water? thats smart

[@dadyking1210]

i just buy a pack of the small bottles.

[@undertraderforex7230]

amazinv cost cutting idea lol

[@anaskanada6661]

Actually no, diluting gatorade will reduce it’s effectiveness, you need the carbs and sugars in it for rehydration. Either drink water or gatorade, it won’t do as much good if it’s mixed

[@sarthakdosad889]

@@anaskanada6661 you are right because you will have to drink more to get the same amount of nutrients you will get from drinking less

[@DJ-lm9ub]

Some people don't know this but there a sugar tax from drink company who have to paid up for using sugar the more sugar they add the more they have to paid that sugar tax which explain why company are trying to find others things to sweeten the drink

[@luckyduckydrivingschool3615]

Thanks for this great explanation. Detailed, but easy to understand.

[@RGTomoenage11]

I use Gatorade as a pre workout. Usually gives me energy and I feel well and less fatigue.

[@ميمحاد]

when should i use it

[@user-hi3jr2sc6z]

I am currently training with a Gatorade by my side so I was wondering this, thanks for the video

[@SavageStephen]

Im drinking gallons of gatorade and not exercising so I can create fat

[@spgtenor]

Best video on KZbin that properly explains the science behind hydration and ATP conversion. I’ve always performed well with Gatorade, great for hangovers as well! So many people afraid of sugar, artificial colors, etc. but don’t mind cramping or becoming fatigued because they only drink water. Once our planet becomes pristine again, I’ll worry about food colorings.

[@masontroglen3413]

Most deff, I hear milks good too! Honestly makes sense , seems like it sticks to ya , n I notice your urine goes from yellow to clear jus from 1cup, I know some ppl are going to disagree n I could be wrong. I'm not a huge milk advocate jus sayin

[@LITTERBOOTS]

What if you’re a mechanic working, moving, lifting, and going up and down stairs in a 90-103 degree shop for 8 hours?

[@lolomolo07]

When to drink it bro?????

[@maxmnnit]

Treadmill for an hour will burn 600+ calories. Drinking 90cals from gatorade and getting the necessary hydration doesn't seem bad to me.

[@matthenley3886]

I thought the same, I probably burn close to 500 in 30 minutes when running at a faster pace so 90 is no big deal.

[@andrewjung2944]

Thank you for this informative video about electrolytes!

[@andrewjung2944]

Where did you learn so much about electrolytes?

[@davidduncan1226]

A few different places, but mostly studies and articles on www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/

[@alcnks2490]

Sports drinks are a scam, they do not contain sufficient amounts ANY electrolytes. Sports drinks are marketing, they do not have any significant effect on performance minus a small insulin boost due to containing cheap forms of sugar. You will be better off eating a banana or drinking some coconut water instead. Sports drinks also contain corn syrup or other cheap sugars which have been linked to an increased risk of obesity and diabetes. They also contain many other potentially harmful chemicals such as artificial colors and flavors which in my opinion you are better safe than sorry, if your body doesn’t need them you should probably avoid them.

[@adityakulkarni7196]

Hi, I am learning drums. I sometimes see that I get little tremors and numbness in my right leg (I use it for bass) after a session. I think it's due to loss of electrolytes. I usually just drink water but I think it might be counter-productive. Do you any have suggestions for me?

[@poppyorangeflower]

I bring both Gatorade and water to the gym. I take a couple of sips of Gatorade before and after working out. The rest is water.

[@snow_tacknives2024]

So if your dehydrated do you recommend gaderaide zero because iv been drinking it and I still fill bad

[@freewilldummies1603]

Stop drinking it lol 😂🤣😅. But, in all seriousness you should only drink it if your sweating hard from outside work.

[@annamarie7776]

What about just hydrating yourself? I drink Gatorade zero, does that help??

[@davidduncan1226]

Gatorade zero has some benefits over water in that it contains electrolytes but it also has artificial sweeteners. Most research shows artificial sweeteners are pretty safe in general but there is evidence that they negatively impact your gut microbiome when consumed regularly. So personally I try to avoid anything with them

[@KnightmareUSA]

I've just tried Gatorade for the first time in the UK, 'cool blue' flavour.. which is supposed to taste of raspberry. It was pretty bad. I prefer Lucozade original, which is probably the main competitor here

[@phanthomgamers1588]

"There these electric current flowing through you", You know i'm something of a Thor myself.

[@nickfanzo]

I can’t stand experts on videos. I just watched another video on how you shouldn’t have Gatorade because you’ll get diabetes or die. Calories in vs calories out Doesn’t matter if it’s from chicken, or cake Calories in vs calories out controls your weight, period. You may not have the best internal health if you only eat sugars but you will lose weight just eating cake if you’re under maintenance. Gatorade is fine if you’re tired during a workout , you won’t die And Gatorade is 80 calories in 12 ounces. How is that ruining your treadmill? If I run on a treadmill and burn 600 calories, you’re telling me the 80 for Gatorade is a deal breaker?

[@chaboi7]

There's only 24 calories per 100ml (Gatorade cool blue 0.5L). How on earth will that defeat the purpose of running on a treadmill for an hour? 😂 now if you said eating pizza while running on the treadmill I would understand 😅 Anyway mad respect on the posters body and well made content ❤️🙏

Nothing wrong feeling proud/positive. Lets spread it.

I would be comfortable with my shirt off, but I honestly see no reason to. This is me personally speaking for myself. In fact, I can't think of even a handful of reasons to do this.
