Yea it’s called electrolytes, dude. Even a tiny bit of salt in the water will help a lot. It isn’t a “craving”; you just sweat out a bunch of salt and straight water will dilute you even further.
And I don’t think anyone who’s a big hydrohomie, myself included, will make fun of you for smashing a gatorade in a heatwave. I love plain water but I’ll do that if I really need something now.
While electrolytes definitely help, it's literally any flavoring. And again even with tiny amounts added (think hints of flavor) I'm good.
I used the hot weather drinking to simply emphasize. Even in cold weather plain water doesn't usually satisfy the craving to drink for me.
I like how you were taught something cool, and instead of choosing to learn, you rejected it and continued living in delusion.
I like how you completely missed that what Soup was talking about doesn’t apply to thejoker954’s situation.
I didn't miss anything.
I was surprised to find Gatorade doesn't contain HFCS, just sugar and dextrose (and yeah, misc. electrolytes, including salt). I think unfortunately people mostly drink it sitting on a couch instead of in the middle of exercise, so it's not really appropriate.
