I have read a lot about so much the last few weeks ... Now I have a community question.. Do glider aid and gatorade do the same thing? I think they have like attributes but do different things...Yes? No?? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> And do those replace or do anything that the nectors do?? or do I just get them all and rotate so to speak?? Any help from you folks would be greatly used... PEACE.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nixweiss.gif" alt="" />

I use gliderade twice a week. It has alot of carbs in it and is good for thier high metabolism. It is also good to help rehydrate them. Someone who uses gatorade should be a long soon tat can help.

ok, reading the contents list from GliderAide: there's bee pollen, nectar, soy protein, whole wheat flour, & more vitamins than Centrum. Gatorade has.......what??
I feed GliderAide on a daily basis to my 10 suggies....that's one of 2 constants in their feeding dishes.

Gatorade is high in electrolytes, which spells energy for your gliders (I'd imagine especially for recouperating, non-feeding, or weak individuals). It's typically aimed towards replacing lost electrolytes through sweat when people exercise. I don't know if it would be a good idea to give it to the gliders on the regular. It's rather high in sodium (from what I understand, mostly to get people under high physical activity to keep drinking and continue rehydrating themselves... Gatorade has it all figured out, you see! Gotta think about the-----> $$$!!!).
On the upside, they have many cool flavours! I wonder if they're naturally flavoured...? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nixweiss.gif" alt="" />

About the only time you would give Gatorade to a glider is when it is dehydrated. This is mostly done as a substitute when Pedialyte is not available. As far as the Gliderade and other nectars are concerned it is a matter of choice. Remember to take into consideration the vitamin/mineral content of these drinks and adjust the supplements in your diet accordingly. It is as easy to harm your gliders with over supplementing as it is to under supplement. Charlie H
