Question

Can we drink Propel or Gatoride or Powerade zero?  

Answer 1

Supposed to stick to the sheets. This plan does not work if you don't.  

Comments

@tolley artificially sweetened beverages are allowed, provided the sweetener is protocol and serving size is observed and counted.  

---

@tolley extras are on the sheet

---

@tallyman when did they add extras like this? Where's the sheet you have

---

@tolley when the protocols were revised Jan1. See the orange 'Daily Optional Items" section

---

@tallyman ahh I have never seen this revised. I would still be careful because sugar is sugar. You body does not know the difference

---

@tolley definitely. and even if it says 0 grams sugar it can have up to . 999 grams. That's why the max is 4 servings and if loss is slow or stalled, that's a good thing to cut out!  

---

@tallyman I honestly don't think I would loose if I drank anything like that. My body absolutely does not do sugar or I gain

Answer 2

If sweetened w sucralose or stevia only. Each serving (maybe a bottle, or half of a bottle, etc) counts as one of your 4 extras per day.

@manganous thank you.  

Answer 3

My doc wants me to get some electrolytes.

@accoucheur have you tried the IP water enhancers? They’re good, and unlimited. And the water counts towards your daily intake.  

---

I drink the Tangerine enhancer twice a day for my electrolytes. First thing I do in morning (I’m not a coffee drinker) my 2nd is around 3 in the afternoon. (I call it Tang)

---

@katanga I love the tangerine one!  

Answer 4

Powerade Zero is preferred but every serving is an extra

Answer 5

My coach said gatoraid zero is fine once in a while for extra electrolytes. But I just drink pickle juice ! Does the same thing and works faster and you need less ☺️ but you can also get the water IP enhancers as well

Answer 6

Might as well take the IP electrolytes instead of gatorade

Answer 7

My coach said to count one a day as my extra.  

Answer 8

The IP water enhancer are the route to take. I love the lemon!  

Answer 9

Add your ideal protein bcaa’s to water, its protocal and better for you. I like the cherry flavour. (Branch chain amino acids)
