Coconut water and Gatorade are both sources of electrolytes. Coconut water contains 850 mg of potassium and 85 mg of magnesium, bringing the total electrolyte weight to 935 mg. Gatorade contains 160 mg of sodium and 45 mg of magnesium, making its overall electrolyte weight in a 12-ounce serving 206 mg. Therefore, coconut water is the clear winner on the electrolyte front. However, research has found no difference between ingesting coconut water and commercially available sports drinks after exercise-induced dehydration with regard to markers of hydration, blood glucose, electrolyte replacement and subsequent exercise performance.  |

Now you tell me - I’ve been on the TB12 diet for the last 6 years!

You could also just drink water and eat a healthy diet.

Is pickle juice for electrolytes or for some other reason?

It's just not necessary to get a 'sports drink' with electrolytes the way people try to tell you it is. Also, coconut water is gross. |
