I know gator-aid and its like advertise that they have lots of them. And I know sometimes I feel bad if I sweat a lot and just drink water. But are they just advertising... salt? Are there different kinds of electrolytes, and if so are they interchangable?

Gatorlyte. It has 490mg sodium and 350mg potassium per bottle. It has that very distinct Pedialyte flavor that tells you it's legit. I can get it at the convenience store next to the local hiking trail, but not the one on main street

Thank you, this is fantastic. I got more understanding out of your write up and responses to people than out of a couple of weeks of reading up random forums and blogs online. Thanks for taking the time.
