True. I hate Gatorade. That and Powerade are just awful. Really? Gatorade is far better for you than soda pop is. Tell yourself that. Do you know how much sugar is in that stuff? 20 oz bottle has 36g added sugar. A serving of low fat chocolate.milk has 25 g sugar. I have always preferred cold milk on a hot day for a cool down. |

They could sell 2% milk chocolate to offset the sugar. I remember a few yrs back they were pitching chocolate.milk as great after a workout as a pick-me-up. Better than a sports drink like Gatorade. If I may....you could go for Unsweetened almond milk. Lower in calories, no sugar, higher in protein, high in calcium. And if you wanted to add some sweetener to it.. you can use this. This Monkfruit sugar has no calories, no sugar, isn't a substitute, etc. I introduced it to my doctor and my gym. They now recommend it to the gym members and my doctors specially provides this to diabetics. The results have been VERY beneficial. www.lakanto.com/?gclid=CjwKCAjw26KxBhBDEiwAu6KXt_ARBJ1e54P-gGAYzgRz-2mhZ1T7tOfWAVNF9ZS9QSKY9ov2EUUd6RoCwHsQAvD_BwEI am up & down on that stuff. If it's in something like coffee, I can deal with it. I have a half gallon of oatmilk I got free a week or so back I need to drink. Some of it has sugar. One needs to check the label. I know on a hot day if I down a cold milk I can feel the cool radiate out from my core, cooling me down. |

I am at an age where I accept I need to pay attention to my carbs since I am diabetic.
I have seriously changed how I look at food.
Pasta?
Grew up with spaghetti night once a week.
No more.
Mom was huge on milk when I was a kid.
Now?
I have a protein drink for dinner, usually milk based like tonight was Premier Protein(broken package 12pk missing 2 1/2 off so $15 for 10). 30g protein, 3g fat, 1g sugar 3g fiber.
I am at an age where I am careful with dinner intake, remembering my daddy's tummy troubles ("I like hot dogs but they don't like me" as he took an antacid).
I have tried a few plant based of that stuff, but all are a bit wonky.

Don't attack the messenger just because I'm showing the kind of pervert you voted for. Yeah, those 26 rapes are a bit disturbing. OH WAIT! Thatās your guyā¦. None of your whataboutism changes the fact that Biden is senile racist pedo girl-sniffer. I bet it would be the thrill of your life if you could meet him and get a pat on the head from him for being one of the 'real' blacks. LOL |
