According to Gaterade they are phasing fructose out:

Does Gatorade include High Fructose Corn Syrup? Why or Why
not?
Currently, G2 does not contain HFCS, and the remaining products
from The Gatorade Company will soon be following suit. We are
changing the source of carbohydrate in Gatorade Thirst Quencher in
2010 to a sucrose-dextrose blend, which still serves the important
functional purpose of providing energy to fuel athletes’ working
muscles during activity. What’s important to note is that from a
scientific efficacy standpoint nothing will change, and our
research shows the taste with the sucrose-dextrose blend is
actually preferred by many athletes.

Why not mix the proper minerals and skip the sugars and fructose.
Those minerals are the electrolytes that help colloidal silver go
through the stomach intact. The fructose is not a factor. Gatorade has
fructose because the athlete also wants some carbohydrate replacement
to revive. Not that I like fructose but this is the reasoning
IOW make a Gatorade equivalent but omit all sugars.

No answer to your question, Dan, but had to remark:
Sometimes it seems their's an angel next to me stamping his feet and
shouting in my ear, "Take the hint, dammit!!"
In light of the post we had quoting an article from Mercola on
fructose
ill effects on weight and blood pressure, I looked at Emergen-C again
to see what sweetener they use. Yup. Fructose. <sigh>
It's a nice product, but that's a drawback.
And today, you post your question...
Having a recipe for a home-made, healthy Gatorade replacement would be
a very nice thing. Please share your results?
Be well!
