IS THE SUGAR IN GATORADE BAD FOR YOU?

There is nothing that makes the sugar in Gatorade specially bad. It's like any other sugar. Trouble is, there is quite a lot of it. And many people think that since Gatorade is marketed as a sports drink, it's "good" for you. Which it isn't. The same amount of sugar, whether in sodas, Gatorades, or simply nibbled dry, will have the same amount of calories - which you might not need - and trigger the same kind of cavity- inducing attack on your teeth.
