| Abstract | After researching the science behind electrolytes and what they do for the body, I wondered about the most popular electrolyte drinks on the market today. I wanted to understand how you can test the concentration levels of electrolytes in Gatorade, Powerade, Gatorade Zero and orange juice. Is there a difference between these drinks and the concentration of electrolytes they contain? |
