Gatorade used to be a better product when it was developed, as is the case with many things. Get a good product, then the company gets bought out, and the product is reformulated to be cheaper to produce. The point for gatorade is that the body needs a sodium to potassium ratio, that and a little sugar helps recover from sports or other situations when it might be desirable to use an electrolyte replacement. lemonade is even better.

Brominated vegetable oils are poisonous alone, with or without corn syrup, which has it's own thang going on.

I used to hear about a home made electrolyte solution, called gook-in-ade. WHO also has a recipe, which I used to use when my kids were little.
