 Good flavor April 19, 2008
N. Burt (Wisconsin)
The wild berry flavor is really great, better then most performance drinks. I also found that this product gave me a good boost of energy just as it promised. Another good product for Gatorade.
Good for some, not for others (moi) March 30, 2008

Not being one for excessive exercise, sometimes even moderate (shame on me), I decided to give this product to my adult workout-manic son. I did however, sample a taste of it before passing it on to him two hours prior to a workout. My reaction was first a sweet and tart flavor, followed by an aftertaste. Maybe the aftertaste was chemical or loaded with sugar; in any case, it was too much for me to consider drinking an entire bottle- if I were to decide to exercise strenuously.
My son's reaction was more favorable, but he is used to loading up on carbs before a workout. Reading the label (320 calories, 0 grams of fat, 350 mg of Sodium, 160 mg of Potassium and 79 grams of carbohydrates), he wasn't sure he wanted to pour all this in his body. He tolerated the taste but said he would have to experience an extraordinary workout before loading up on all these chemicals on a regular basis.
A few hours later, he called to say the workout went all right, some energy boost, but he wasn't committed to using this product with any consistency. He was willing to try it again, to compare the two workouts, but his inclination was to stick with regular Gatorade products and avoid the extra amount of carbs and sugar in this drink.

 Taste like regular gatorade March 23, 2008
D. Keating (Bristow, VA United States)
I was a little concerned that this new product from Gatorade would taste a lot different than the original that I enjoy. As a runner I have drank plenty of gatorade in my lifetime, so I am happy to report that this product tastes just like the original despite the different blend of the ingredients. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys regular Gatorade and is looking for a high card drink.
Tasted Good March 16, 2008

I tried the wild berry in Gatorade's performance series and have to say I really liked the taste. It was much better than the normal Gatorade. I little more sweet and a tad less sour.
very good--but best suited for the athletes amongst us March 13, 2008

Gatorade performance series carbohydrate energy formula is not my favorite tasting beverage; but for the athletes amongst us it can sure make excellent sense to drink this stuff! I am no athlete; I only drink this sporadically. This drink is best suited for people who train intensively and people who compete in sporting competitions. It's essentially a "high octane" version of regular Gatorade. It does have a somewhat pleasant berry, fruity taste to it that is enhanced by huge amounts of sugar. If the taste isn't too great, try to refrigerate this before drinking it. Leave any leftover Gatorade refrigerated for best taste and nutritional value.
Gatorade comes in a firm plastic bottle with a cap that screws on and off for easy drinking. It contains 79 grams of carbs that you will probably lose if you're really exercising a lot. In addition, this type of Gatorade has sodium (ouch) BUT it will rehydrate you fast after you work out. It may also be helpful to drink Gatorade if you have diarrhea; ask your doctor about this. It's also worth noting that this type of Gatorade contains 25% of the recommended daily intake of niacin, B6, and pantothenic acid
In addition, Gatorade can give you an energy boost without making you lose sleep; this is because Gatorade has sugar but no caffeine.
Overall, I highly recommend Gatorade as more than just a snack drink. Gatorade helps you to rehydrate after you sweat a lot during a work out or some type of sporting competition; and it gives you an energy boost as well while replenishing any carbohydrates you may have lost doing exercise. It may also be beneficial when you're on chemotherapy (as I am) to balance out your body's system. I believe that this type of Gatorade also contains electrolytes that can be beneficial to your system.
If you have any questions about Gatorade ask your doctor before drinking this beverage.
