HubbaBubbaHelp answered Tuesday April 10 2007, 10:55 pm: The original Gatorade contained water, sucrose (table sugar) and glucose-fructose syrups, and citric acid, sodium chloride (table salt), sodium citrate, monopotassium phosphate, and flavoring/coloring ingredients. It supplies 127 mg/l of potassium and 464 mg/l of sodium, and 59 g/l of carbohydrates (in the form of sugars). The current (2006) Gatorade panel claims that Gatorade rehydrates athletes better than water because the flavor makes it easier to drink. But note that the current composition of Gatorade contains High Fructose Corn Syrup.
