Product Information on Gatorade
Gatorade was developed by the University of Florida College of Medicine in response to the needs of the Florida Gators football team, which found itself losing drastic amounts of weight and running out of energy during games due to electrolyte loss. Now owned by Pepsi, Gatorade offers products designed to rehydrate and energize athletes before, during and after exercise. Does this Spark an idea?
