Dehydration? Gatorade?

I feel like I'm dehydrated. Water have been making me pretty nauseated. I'm always switching up brands and types of water. Even have add fruit to try and help. Will Gatorade help any?

Gatorade is great when you are dehydrated. It does have a lot of sugar so its best to half it with water, but water alone will not maintain adequate hydration.

When i was feeling dehydrated i would add a dash of salt and some lemon juice to my water and It helped a lot. The salt helps you retain the water and the lemon contains natural electrolytes.

If you are worried and don't want to call your Dr's office then contact your pharmacist.  They are great wealth of knowledge.

I was so sick at the beginning I was actually told to drink sports drinks(gatorade) regularly for 2weeks just to replenish my electrolytes. I bought the powdered stuff so I could water it down....now however the thought of it make me nauseous

I've been drinking some Gatorade (not a lot) when water is not cutting it. I like the low calorir grape. It's not as sweet.

The only thing I've been able to stomach is 7up. But since yesterday I've started feeling off. And today I woke up feeling dehydrated. I don't believe there is a nurse to call for a few more hours at the office or even at all during the weekend. I just am trying to feel better.
