The reason they can be a replacement for water is because they have just as much water in them as water. I know people who only drink gatorade and theyre very healthy
Not a good thing. Gatorade also has other shit in it like sodium and artifical flavors.

Nothing replaces water, period.

unless your buying water or have a filter on your sink i wouldnt count on the water being good. most of the time water coming out of the sink isnt that good for you cause of the crap in it even after it came from your water treatment plant. some of you should try testing it and see if its any good

Yeah I do agree with you, even though I made the initial gatorade comment. That is, if were talking about constantly drinking something multiple times a day. I was referring to short term replacement status type of deal. And also if youre playing intense sports or hiking/camping.

If something was better than water itself in the long-term, life-giving aspect.... wed have known about it long ago.



What I dont get is the people who dont like the "taste" of water. Its usually girls that come with that, and I just cant figure it out. How can you not like the taste of something that has no taste?

^^^^^^^ i agree. i CANT STAND FAUCET WATER! i wont drink any type of water that isnt purified or filtered. when i try water from the sink it taste like shit to me. most ppl say im krazy that it dont taste like nothin but it does. fools just dont taste it cause theyre used to the shitty taste it has. they dont know any better. i usually buy purified gallons of water n i have a filter also. nothing can replace water period. u should drink more water to clear out ur system of toxins n shit. it also prevents kidney failure keeps u at a steady weight and alot of other good shit. ditch the kool aid

I remember my health teacher told me that Gatorade is only good as/better than water when your exercizing and need an additional boost in sodium and carbs and electrolytes that your losing from being active. However, if your just sitting on your ass on siccness all day, then no, don't fuck with gatorade or powerade just drink water, cause afterall those drinks still have what, like 35g of sugar in each drink?

this is true

Hell nah, its not nearly as good for you in the long run.

The only types of drinks that are as good (or better for you) than water are Gatorade, Powerade, etc.

The electrolyte situation isn't a gimmick, it's definitely beneficial. So drink sports drinks if you cant hang with water.



LOL @ poster "Kool-Aid" "I love it with hella sugar", comedy
Gatorade has hella sugar in it too...a lot of sodium also, but I guess the sodium is good if you are sweating a lot.

LOL @ not being able to hang with water. hahahaha!

Water doesn't have a taste...unless it's tap water, Who knows what type of shit is in it.

u know how ur supposed to drink xx amount of cups a water a day, well what if u drink that many cups of kool-aid a day(mostly tropical punch & watermelon cherry) cause it is just basically water wit some sugar n flavor so that shoulnt really matter, anyone know?
I understand what you are asking. To answer your question....no it isn't as good for you. Yeah you are taking in the same amount of water but you are also taking in an excessive amount of sugar and that much sugar isn't good for you.
