    3 main differences - Amount Sugar/Sodium/Type of Sugar

    Gatorade has slightly more sodium...for extreme workouts it is the better choice. For joe schmoe athletes they are practically the same.

    Sugar content for both is within the accepted range for proper delivery to blood...thus, no diff.

    Sugar type, there has been no clear winner in the glucose vs. polymer tests...thus, no diff.

    • Yeah they are pretty much the same by those measures. Pretty much what is left is people's idea of what tastes better.
