My wife drinks it to help keep from having headaches and sick people drink it to keep their fluids up. Water is better for you if you are drinking just to be drinking. Tell him to walk to the store and get you some more if he is interested in exercising.

I've heard the same thing. I think thats because gatorade is intended to put back in your body everything that was lost during extensive work out, sports and training. Thats why if you notice althletes always drink gatorade during games

yes. this is true. gatorade has healthy viatamins in it for when u r exorcising, but if u arent exorcising and u drink it every day, that is really unhealthy, cuz there is a load of sugar in it.

Don't you mean "exercising"? I don't think you work with possessed people :)
Anyway, it's not unhealthy but it's unnecessary. Gatorade is to restore the salt you've lost while you exercise. If you are not losing anything, it makes no good. It makes not bad either.

Gatorade was designed to replace energy and what-not that is being used during exercise. If you are not exercising, then your body stores a lot of extra stuff that you don't need and it becomes junk food.

Gatorade is not a good choice even when you are exercising as it is full of sugar and artificial ingredients. Why not switch to a water that contains electrolytes?

Not at all
Gatorade had elector lites in it, which is what keeps your body healthy and strong. In fact its good for you if you are exercising or not. It's also good to drink when you have an upset stomach but it does contain sugar.

it isnt good for you. Gatprade has a lot of calories and if your not excersizing, or about to, then you are just taking in a ton of calories. Also a big part of gatorade is th electrolights(sp?) if your not using them they willl store in your body and thats not good.

When your exercizing, gatorade replaces the the calories that you are using so if your an athelete, that's great.
However if your trying to lose weight, something like propel or fruit2O would be better.
But i do think it's good when your dehydrated or have been sick recently.
