Why I Don't Give My Kids Gatorade

This is why I don’t give my kids Gatorade when they are sick or playing sports.

Gatorade has…

  • 34 sugar packets in one bottle.

  • Includes red dye and caramel color

Instead I offer my children Harmless Harvest coconut water which is filled with electrolytes and has better ingredients.

Here is my sons recipe for his electrolyte drink:

💦 2 cups water

🍋 1½ lemon

🧂1/8 tsp Jacobson sea salt

🍯 2 tsp Kandarian Farms honey (add more to taste)
