Da Drink Some Ho Made “Nothing but Pop Rocks and water for me.” 12:34:33 AM 3/21/02 “I used to make an electrolyte solution for my horse when I did endurance trail riding. That's been a long time ago and I don't remember the proportions but it contained Salt Sense (contains tricalcium phosphate), Morton's Lite Salt (cotains both potassium and magnesium sources), regular salt and powdered fructose that you can get from the diabetic foods aisle. Of course, the proportions would be different for humans than for horses anyway. I still keep the salts in the house and add a dash of each to the meals I'm going to take on a hiking trip. I usually just take powdered gatorade or powerade along anyway.” 5:54:42 AM 3/21/02 “I carry electrolite pills.” 6:47:21 AM 3/21/02 “the mag talks about gatorade and powerade being old school..with the new science of power drinks gatoraid is outdated and more findings are coming out that it doesn't help much at all It tells the ingredients, and substances you want to look for..the ones to stay away from...which drink helps you build up into the excercise..which sustains you through it..and which is best for the end of the activity....it even disects the energy drinks (red bull, blue ox, sobe)...a few pages on booze...and a few on bottle water” 7:56:01 AM 3/21/02 “I carry the electrolyte pills in my first aid kit too.

Gotta run!” 2:26:49 PM 3/21/02 “Where do you get electrolyte pills?” 2:31:17 PM 3/21/02 “Mine came in my first aid kit. I have seen them at the pharmacy, though. Ask your pharmacist.” 2:48:54 PM 3/21/02 “On my last backpack trip with SirPete and Fritz, Sirpete's friend Phil treated us to gator-drivers. Vodka and Gatorade.... don't knock it til you've tried it!” 2:57:08 PM 3/21/02 “Wow, something that depletes and replenishes your electrolytes at the same time!

We used to take gatorade and Wild Turkey on the trail. A lethal concoction called "Wild Gators" usually appeared around a camp fire. These days, I avoid deny that I could possibly enjoy anything that has the word "Gators" in the description............ c'mon Florida fans,,,,,,,,,show a little humor......” 8:20:48 AM 3/22/02 “Vodka and Gatorade? My stomach hurts just thinking about it! Gatorade is like a "happy" drink; it really perks my energy level up. Before taking up backpacking, I had read that Gatorade wasn't really good for athletes, that is was just advertising. But now I know that for me, a pint a day makes a big difference. I bring potassium supplements and chewable kids vitamins too.” 8:57:55 AM 3/22/02
