Do you need the sweet sports drinks for energy?

[alpinerabbit]

Yeah, I'm not looking for carb free, I'm asking whether a lower sugar drink will give me the same energy benefits as one like gatorade--or if I can just eat more complex carbs plus an electrolyte tab in water and stay away from the super sweet drinks.

yes? of course, if you can stomach it!

Have a banana!

have some pretzels and even lose the electrolyte tab!
