And sugars , that is what Gatorade has "FULL" of. The artificial color is so miniscule it's not even listed as a percentage or amount. It also has the endorsement of all major sports teams and running clubs and health organizations. So, it is a option in cases of mild to severe dehydration and fluid and electrolyte replacement. mineral oil is a very safe and effective lubricant and laxative if needed. What " CRAP" are you saying about Gatorade?????? There is a G2 version of Gatorade that is a more dilute concentration if that's what someone may want to use. Gatorade is a safe fluid replacement.

Actually the best electrolyte for humans is coconut water. I don't know about reptiles so I won't guess on anything. But for humans it's the closest thing to our blood plasma actually to the point it's used in blood tranfusions around the world when human blood isn't available. It's also obviously a naturally occurring water without any additives. Sorry but blood transfusion trumps sports sponsorship.
