WaterLeaks

BODYARMOR has a better ingredient list than most sports drinks, but a regular bottle carries about 21 grams of sugar most people do not need. For everyday activity, plain filtered water does the job.

Gatorade Zero has no sugar, but it is sweetened with sucralose and acesulfame potassium and colored with synthetic dyes in most flavors. Here is what the research actually says about drinking it every day, and when plain filtered water is the smarter choice.

Prime Hydration is caffeine free and fine in moderation, but it relies on artificial sweeteners like sucralose and acesulfame potassium. Prime Energy is a different product with about 200 mg of caffeine and is not appropriate for kids or teens.
