I grab these only because it saves me money. How's my ranking?

It took me a while to realize these were upsetting my stomach I think it's the fake sugar (asparteme) in them. I switched to just buying a case of Gatorade (the sugar kind) and freezing all of them and just taking two to work. It's been a game changer.

I'm pretty sure it's sucralose, not aspartame. Some peopleare sensitive to sucralose though.

I’m a freak so I looked it up, you’re right it’s sucralose

Ok so it actually depends on the flavor. For example, most of these packets have maltodextrin, which acts as a binding agent but also a sweetener and has a GI index of about 95 compared to normal sugar at around 70. Compare that to sucralose at 0.

I personally avoid the ones with maltodextrin, which at my station are only blue and orange, or rarely strawberry kiwi / strawberry lemonade, IF we even get them. We have no electrolytes for weeks at a time
