In this episode, we unpack the evolution of sports drinks and explore what needs to be in them (and what doesn’t). We also review 4 popular sports drinks to give you real life examples and help you make more informed decisions about what you’re drinking and what you’re spending your money on. 

Our discussion includes:

• The origin story of Gatorade 
• How sports drinks have evolved (or devolved?) over time
• What to look for and what to question on the label
• Why more isn’t always better when it comes to certain ingredients
• Product review of Powerade, Liquid IV, Body Armor, and Pedialyte Sport

We also share our DIY sports drink recipes in our Patreon Community for our Gold members.
