I hear Gatorade is like the worst thing anyone can drink. But out of desperation, I'm looking for what IS good for diabetics to drink that has electrolytes.

Gatorade is deffinately not the best drink. It is loaded with sugar and carbs. Try drinking water, or the flavored packets that you put in the water bottles (Crystal Light), and the vitamin water also has electrolytes in it. It is pretty good in taste. I am also a diabetic and the dietician as well as my physician said to leave off gatorade, the calorie intake is not appropriate for our diets.

If you are having a heat stroke or are in danger, Gatorade is about the best drink to drink down. At this point, your sugar levels maybe so low it would not matter.
I don't think there really are any good drinks out there that is not loaded with sugar and other high carbs. I too am diabetic and it is hard to find things like that.

I am a diabetic and I have been drinking Gatorade. I went to the doctor today and my blood sugar was over 500. Diabetics DO NOT need to drink Gatorade. You would think by now they would make a sugar free Gatorade.

As a diabetic, the ONLY time I would drink Gatorade, is when experiencing a very bad low, when I needed to get sugar quickly. There are better products to use for this purpose, such as Glucose tablets, which are specifically formulated for it. Gatorade is much too high in sugar. As far as I'm concerned any sugar that I can avoid, is good sugar. In other words, there is no good sugar for a diabetic.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Gatorade should be okay. They do have sugar free electrolyte replacement on the market now. If you are still leery, and I don't blame you do to the severe complications that can occur with uncontrolled diabetes, get some pediasure, it's in the baby section and contains a lot less sugar. I hope this works for you.

Have you had a eloctrolytes test to see what your normal is? If not then you should, as a diabetic, stay away from Gratoraid type drinks. They contain a large amount of salt and the rest of it is sugar. Thats their eloctrolytes!!
Try some weak green tea, or the lemon zinger type teas, or even kool-aid with splenda in a bottle will work find. Water is always the best for your health but man O' man I hate the taste of it.
