FAQs

Gatorade was developed in 1965 by researchers at the University of Florida to help athletes replace fluids and electrolytes lost to sweat, and provide carbohydrates for energy.

Yes. Gatorade contains key electrolytes like sodium and potassium to help replace what you lose in sweat.

Gatorade Thirst Quencher contains sodium and potassium electrolytes. This is because sweat contains more than just water - when athletes sweat, they also lose electrolytes such as sodium and potassium. Unlike other beverages that are not scientifically formulated with the recommended amount of electrolytes for the active occasion, Gatorade is lab-tested to ensure it helps replenish the electrolytes lost in sweat while maintaining thirst so athletes will adequately ingest enough fluid and electrolytes to stay well-hydrated.

Gatorade provides fluid and electrolytes to help replace what you lose in sweat. Some Gatorade products, like Gatorade Thirst Quencher, also provide carbohydrates to provide energy and help support performance during exercise.

Gatorade provides electrolytes and fluids that help support hydration during exercise or heat exposure, especially when sweating heavily.

Most Gatorade hydration products do not contain caffeine. Only specific energy products like Fast Twitch include caffeine for performance needs.

Yes. Gatorade has a “best before” date to ensure peak flavor and quality, and it’s recommended to consume it before that date.

It depends on the product and volume. Gatorade Thirst Quencher contains carbohydrates from sugar to provide energy, while G2 and Gatorade Zero offer lower-sugar or zero-sugar options.

Gatorade helps replenish electrolytes lost to sweat and provides carbohydrates to help support performance; water alone does not provide these.

Yes, Gatorade can be consumed during pregnancy to help maintain hydration, but anyone with medical concerns should consult their healthcare provider.

Hydration needs are different for everyone. The amount of fluid and electrolytes lost to sweat depends on different factors, such as someone's exercise environment, sweat rate, and the exercise intensity and duration. Gatorade's portfolio has a variety of options to meet different needs.

Yes. Some hydration powders include vitamins and minerals that help support immune function. Propel Immune Support Powder offers 100 percent daily value of vitamin C, a good source of zinc, B vitamins, and antioxidant vitamin E. It has Gatorade electrolytes to help replace what you lose in sweat, zero sugar, no artificial flavors or added colors (the labels for the Propel Immune Support powders do state no added colors or artificial flavors), and comes in compact stick packs for easy on-the-go hydration.

Propel Immune Support tablets and RTD - if added, will need to be reviewed

Travel-friendly hydration focuses on portability. Single serve sticks like Gatorlyte Powder, Gatorade Zero Powder, or Propel Powder are compact and easy to mix anywhere.

Single-serve sticks are ideal because they’re lightweight and mix easily. Gatorade offers several options, including Gatorlyte, Gatorade Zero, and Propel Powder.

Athletes have different hydration and fueling needs. Gatorade Thirst Quencher (GTQ), low-calorie Gatorade G2 and Gatorade Zero provide options to meet the needs of more athletes during more occasions.GTQ and G2 both provide hydration as well as carbohydrate fuel; however, G2 offers less carbohydrate thereby making it “low calorie.” While GTQ helps effectively meet hydration and energy needs for most athletes, G2 helps meet those same needs when less carbohydrate is required (e.g., lower intensities and durations, or when goals are other than performance) or when an athlete has a high sweat rate (sweating out more fluid than the norm, therefore needing to replace higher fluid losses while still staying within the recommended carbohydrate intake range for athletes).Gatorade Zero is meant for an athlete looking for a zero-sugar thirst quencher with the same electrolytes as a Gatorade Thirst Quencher. Gatorade Zero is also a great option for athletes who prefer to get the carbohydrate energy they need to fuel working muscles from products such as gels or chews, as a supplement to their hydration choice.

The best hydration powder depends on someone's goals, needs, and preferences. Effective electrolyte powders provide sodium and potassium to help replace sweat losses, mix easily in water, and match an athlete’s training needs. Gatorade powders offer variations to provide carbohydrate energy for fuel, zero-sugar needs, or support rapid rehydration.

Endurance athletes participate in long duration training, where they may have high sweat losses and need carbohydrates to help fuel their workout. Gatorade Endurance powder is formulated with nearly 2x the sodium and 3x the potassium of standard Gatorade and a carbohydrate blend to help support long-duration training.

Through following the powder instructions and correctly mixing with water, Gatorade powder mix offers the same efficacy and performance benefits of Gatorade Thirst Quencher in a bottle at the best value. Where only water is available, Gatorade powder mix provides a convenient option to transform water into Gatorade Thirst Quencher. It's also a great option for multi-serve situations such as for teams on practice or game day.

Unlike sedentary consumers who are warned by experts to reduce sodium intake, athletes need to consume enough sodium to replace the significant amounts they lose in sweat. Of all the electrolytes lost in sweat, sodium is lost in the greatest amount and is the KEY electrolyte to replace during and after activity, particularly when exercising in the heat. Sodium helps encourage drinking and enables the body to better retain fluid and support fluid balance. Adequate sodium concentration promotes successful rehydrate after exercise. Research shows that a typical athlete or active person can easily lose a quart (32 oz.) or more of sweat per hour and can lose more than 920 mg of sodium per quart of sweat (2.3 g NaCl). Athletes and active people who are sweating a lot should look for sports drinks that contain an effective amount of sodium to aid the rehydration process. We know from extensive research that a sports drink containing at least 100 mg of sodium per eight ounces improves hydration and that during prolonged training and competition, many athletes can benefit from even more. The Institute of Medicine and 2007 ACSM position stand recommend 20-30 mEq/L (460-690 mg/L) sodium and 2-5 mEq/L (78-195 mg/L) potassium – Gatorade Thirst Quencher, G2 and Gatorade Zero meet these recommended ranges.

The colors in Gatorade provide visual appeal and help reinforce the flavor perception. They are also useful in helping our consumers quickly locate their favorite flavors. The colors used in Gatorade are certified by the FDA for use in beverages and reviewed for safety to the consumer.

When you sweat, you lose more than just water. Gatorade contains key electrolytes and carbohydrates. Electrolytes replace what is lost in sweat, promote the drive to drink, and aid in the maintenance of plasma volume. Carbohydrates help the body absorb fluids quickly. Click here to identify the right Gatorade hydration option for you based on activity level.

We do not recommend freezing Gatorade. If frozen or stored below 40 degrees F., the flavor emulsion may be damaged. Freezing doesn't affect the efficacy of the product, only its sensory attributes. More importantly, the content of the bottle may expand under frozen conditions resulting in distortion of the seal integrity of the plastic bottle.

Gatorade Thirst Quencher, G2 and Gatorade Zero ready-to-drink / powder varieties are kosher certified. Gatorade Endurance Formula ready-to-drink and concentrate used on event courses are also kosher certified. Consumers need to look for the Circled U symbol on the front of the label when looking to purchase kosher certified products.Gatorade protein or energy products are not kosher certified.

When you sweat, you lose electrolytes, like sodium and potassium, which help the brain communicate with muscles and regulate fluid balance in your body. Significant fluid and electrolyte loss can negatively impact athletic performance – especially during long bouts of training in the heat. Gatorade helps put back lost electrolytes and stimulates thirst so athletes will drink more and stay hydrated.

Our products are intended for humans; we recommend checking with your veterinarian.

Although there’s no fruit juice in Gatorade, we cannot guarantee that a grapefruit component is not part of the natural flavors and recommend you discuss this with your physician before consuming.

Under normal conditions, Gatorade maintains fresh flavor approximately 3-5 days in a refrigerator if tightly capped and refrigerated within 24 hours of opening. Gatorade should be kept refrigerated or chilled (40 to 60 degrees F.) after opening.

Gatorade is a shelf stable product, not a perishable product like milk. Shelf stable beverages are safe to consume past the recommended use by date, but may experience slight changes in flavor or color as the product ages.

No.

Gatorade Endurance is an elite line of sports nutrition products for endurance athletes who have specific fueling needs and performance goals. The products vary in the amount and type of nutrients they contain and the functional packaging in which they are delivered. Including a five-electrolyte blend which includes sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and chloride, Gatorade Endurance Formula is a specialized sports drink designed to provide hydration during prolonged training and racing when fluid and electrolyte losses can be significant.

Gatorade Endurance products are available where endurance athletes shop – at run, bike and tri specialty stores nationwide, select Dicks Sporting Goods locations, and online at Amazon.

The tablets formula is not a direct replication of our powder formulas, but you can still expect the same great taste that you’re used to with our other Gatorade products.

Electrolytes like sodium and potassium help regulate fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signaling. These electrolytes are typically included in sports drink to help replace what you lose in sweat.

Electrolytes can be found in foods and beverages, including sports drinks. Sports drinks like Gatorade provide sodium and potassium at recommended levels to help replace losses from sweat.

Replenishment comes from replacing both fluids and key electrolytes lost to sweat, like sodium and potassium. Sports drinks, like Gatorade and Gatorade Zero, are designed to help replace these electrolytes.

Drinking fluids with sodium can help replace sweat losses. Sodium also helps your body retain, or hold onto, the fluid you drink, which helps with hydration.

Drink fluids consistently throughout the day and increase intake when sweating due to exercise or being in the heat or illness.

Sweating helps cool the body and regulate temperature. Adequately replacing fluid and electrolytes lost to sweat helps support overall hydration.

An effective sports drink provides the fluid and electrolytes to help replace what’s lost in sweat, and (if needed) carbohydrates to support performance. Hydration needs are different for everyone; consider the intensity and duration of activity when choosing the drink for your workout.

Muscles rely on fuel to thrive. Carbohydrate is the body’s powerhouse fuel for moderate to high intensity exercise and without it athletes can lack energy, experience muscle fatigue, and are unable to perform their best at high intensity.

Eating protein shortly after training or competition is important for muscle recovery. A small amount (approximately 20 grams for an average 175 lb athlete) of high-quality, complete protein (containing all the essential amino acids) as soon as possible after athletic activity helps rebuild muscles.For more precise recommendations, recent research estimates ~0.25 g/kg of body weight.
