Adult Pedeolite

ECBG — Tue, 08 Dec 2020 02:25:31 GMT

I quickly saw a TV add for an adult version of Pedeolite. Has anyone gotten what they say is a mega dose of vitamins and minerals?

I thought the purpose of that stuff was to replace electrolytes and fluids. Never heard vitamins mentioned.

@Kachina624 Maybe it's a different product & not the same as Pedialite.

I've always called the adult version of Pedialite, Gatorade!

Neither of my girls would touch Pedialite, but loved Gatorade, so it's always in the fridge.

Many of the Metropolitan hospitals are using pure coconut water for dehydration now.

An elderly adult we knew loved children's P. frozen sticks. Sort of like popsicles, only with the benefit of hydration, which she often needed.

Seems like the vitamins are part of the adult formula.

There are a ton of electroyte powders available. I use a sugar free one I buy at Amazon or Whole Foods. It's great if you're not feeling well. I also use it if I've sweated a lot during a workout or if I have a headache or have recently got any cramps in my legs/toes. It also helps the next morning if you've had an extra cocktail.

I suspect it's people who don't like to drink good old water. The electrolytes may help people who've lost a lot of fluid through body functions become hydrated faster than water would. Since nothing will help if someone won't drink it, if someone who needs hydration hates water, this might be a good solution.

There are no vitamins in it. It does contain zinc though.
