This beverage contains a lot of sugar and has a pH of roughly 3, so it\u2019s pretty acidic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade is the official sports drink of all the major sports leagues \u2014 the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, and NASCAR. It\u2019s a symbol of victory cherished by many major athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to this, what began as a drink for a single college football team, &#8220;The Florida Gators,&#8221; is now available worldwide. But do its health benefits outweigh the drink&#8217;s high acidity? Let\u2019s look into this.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Gatorade.jpg\" alt=\"Gatorade \" class=\"wp-image-7936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Gatorade.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Gatorade-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption>Gatorade<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Gatorade Nutritional Value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade has different flavors and colors, but its nutritional profile is mostly the same for all. The brand&#8217;s website states that a 20-ounce bottle contains:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Nutrition<\/th><th>Value<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Calories<\/td><td>140<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fat<\/td><td>0 g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sodium<\/td><td>270 mg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Carbohydrates<\/td><td>36 g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fiber<\/td><td>0 g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sugars<\/td><td>34 g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Protein<\/td><td>0 g<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Potassium<\/td><td>75 g<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Gatorade Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade offers a wide range of beverage options with varying levels of sweetness, color, and taste, yet the ingredients are more or less the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a list of the essential components in a standard bottle:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Water<\/td><td>For hydration<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sugar<\/td><td>For energy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dextrose<\/td><td>Type of sugar used also for energy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Citric acid<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Salt<\/td><td>For electrolyte replenishment<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sodium citrate<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Monopotassium phosphate<\/td><td>For a boost in potassium levels<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Modified food starch<\/td><td>Stabilizing agent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Natural flavor<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Food dye<\/td><td>For color<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Glycerol ester of rosin<\/td><td>Stabilizing agent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Caramel color<\/td><td>For color<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade also makes organic drinks that contain:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Water<\/td><td>For hydration<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cane sugar<\/td><td>For energy<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Citric acid<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Natural flavor<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sea salt<\/td><td>For electrolyte replenishment<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sodium citrate<\/td><td>For flavor<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Monopotassium phosphate<\/td><td>For a boost in potassium levels<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>What Makes Gatorade Acidic?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade has a pH level of around 3, which means this sports beverage is almost as acidic as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/is-coca-cola-acidic\/\">Coca-Cola<\/a> (pH of 2.37). How so?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, for starters, it\u2019s high in sugar \u2014 the leading triggering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5725502\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">heartburn agent<\/a>. Each 20 oz bottle of Gatorade contains 34 grams of sugar. This is higher than the recommended total daily allowance of 32 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, Gatorade contains citric acid, which stimulates excess stomach acid production. It may trigger stomach problems like heartburn and acid reflux if taken in vast quantities, not to mention that sports beverages can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bio21.unimelb.edu.au\/why-those-sugar-free-products-damage-your-teeth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">wear down tooth enamel<\/a>, rendering teeth fragile and prone to decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, Gatorade is acidic for both your stomach and teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>pH Levels of Different Gatorade Sports Drinks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All Gatorade drinks are highly acidic; however, their pH levels vary slightly from one drink to another. Let\u2019s look at the most popular types and their pH levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Type of Gatorade Sports Drink<\/th><th>pH level<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Frost Riptide Rush<\/td><td>2.99<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rain Line<\/td><td>3.19<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rain Strawberry Kiwi<\/td><td>3.17<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Blueberry Pomegranate<\/td><td>3.21<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fierce Grape<\/td><td>3.05<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fierce Melon<\/td><td>3.05<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fruit Punch<\/td><td>3.01<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lemon Lime<\/td><td>2.97<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Orange<\/td><td>2.99<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rain Berry<\/td><td>3.17<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Can Gatorade Cause Acid Reflux and GERD?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade contains sugar and citric acid, both of which can induce acid reflux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Acid reflux can leave you with a sour or bitter taste in your mouth and burning discomfort in your chest. When stomach acid and other substances go up the esophagus and irritate the tissues, they cause heartburn \u2014 a burning sensation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although not life-threatening, it does occur often. If it happens frequently, the ailment is known as gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/10683102\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">studies<\/a>, athletes are more likely to suffer from acid reflux if they rehydrate with typical sports beverages as opposed to water. Why? Because they consume these drinks in large quantities, so the amount of sugar and citric acid that enters the body is sky high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>How to Determine Whether Gatorade Triggers Acid Reflux or GERD?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Gatorade is an acidic sports drink, this does not necessarily imply that it is to blame for your heartburn. Fortunately, there are a number of ways to determine whether consuming this beverage can cause acid reflux in you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you experience heartburn immediately after drinking Gatorade and this pattern continues each time you drink it, there\u2019s a high chance that this beverage may be the trigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade may not be the culprit if you get acid reflux symptoms while exercising. Exercises that impose stress on the abdomen, such as gymnastics, rope jumping, jogging, and cycling, may increase the likelihood of heartburn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Acid reflux could also be caused by a change in your daily routine. This includes a variety of factors, such as overeating, sleeping right after eating, drinking alcohol, smoking, eating acidic foods, and taking medications. Gatorade may merely be a trigger for heartburn rather than the actual cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Reduce Heartburn While Drinking Gatorade<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What can you do to lessen the symptoms of heartburn now that you know it might be the cause?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by drinking less Gatorade. You likely consume too much if you have heartburn right after drinking it. Reduce the number of bottles you drink each day to lessen the symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/How-to-Reduce-Heartburn-While-Drinking-Gatorade.jpg\" alt=\"How to Reduce Heartburn While Drinking Gatorade\" class=\"wp-image-7937\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/How-to-Reduce-Heartburn-While-Drinking-Gatorade.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/How-to-Reduce-Heartburn-While-Drinking-Gatorade-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption>Drinking Gatorade<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>If you are planning to exercise, eat two hours before exercising. You can still drink Gatorade and water while exercising, but eating right before exercising is not a good idea. A full stomach puts a lot of strain on the sphincter, which might result in heartburn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eat a banana after working out. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodchamps.org\/are-bananas-acidic\/\">Bananas are neutral antacids<\/a> that if consumed regularly, can help reduce heartburn. They\u2019re also high in fiber, so in addition to keeping you full, they will help prevent heartburn by sucking extra liquid into your stomach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gatorade is an acidic sports beverage with many flavor options. Although there are many variations, all of them have a pH value of roughly 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The drink is high in electrolytes, which may be very helpful to athletes. However, if consumed excessively, the high sugar and citric acid concentration may cause acid reflux and GERD if consumed excessively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have heartburn shortly after consuming Gatorade? The drink might be the culprit. Reduce consumption and monitor your body&#8217;s reaction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you still get acid reflux, it&#8217;s likely that additional factors like overeating, eating before exercising, sleeping after a large meal, consuming alcohol, and smoking are to blame.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The most well-known electrolyte drink in the world, Gatorade, provides minerals and hydration to our bodies.
