nesa83 89 Posted January 15, 2014 Ok so my NUT is on vacation and the one that is available is extremely strict she believes that we should not drink anything but herbal tea and Water not even crystal light nothing. I've got to the point where I'm getting nauseas with plain water specially in the morning. I don't want to get dehydrated. So my question has anyone had regular Gatorade? And been ok? On my doctors list which is different then the stricter nuts list says I could have G2 but I can't find it anywhere only the regular one. I just need something other then plain water.

JerseyGirl68 1,172 Posted January 15, 2014 Try Vitamin Water zero, the flavors are good and the carbs are very low. Regular Gatorade has so much sugar, really no good for us. If nothing else is available you could dilute the Gatorade 1/2 with Water. Do a search for G2 powder on Amazon, they have it. 1 nesa83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BryBro63 410 Posted January 15, 2014 My nutritionist has me on Powerade Zero for Pre-Op, and strongly suggested it for post-op as well...zero calories, decent taste, and gives you the benefits of a sports drink. I was told to stay away from the Gatorade as well as the G2, because of the sugar content. 1 nesa83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishingaaron 11 Posted January 15, 2014 I drink Powerade zero, Vitamin Water zero and propel zero. I think your Nut is a nut! Find something you like and get your fluids. 1 nesa83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nesa83 89 Posted January 15, 2014 My doctors list did say poweraid zero but my nutritionist said no just stick to Water. I'm just going to go get some poweraid zero for now that's easier to find. Thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A.c. Nelums 11 Posted January 17, 2014 I was not allowed to drink Gatorade G2 due to the total carbs. They have suggested Vitamin Water, Crystal Light, Mio, unsweeten decafe tea, decafe coffee. (Today, I have "cheated") I have ordered an unsweeten tea from McDonalds (which I do believe has cafeine in it but I was dragging butt this morning sooo bad, I had to have something (espically since I work 2nd shift.) 1 nesa83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
