Gatorade is a so-called sports drink which was designed to replenish energy the body loses during strenuous exercise. It was designed by scientists at the University of Florida to be used by the football team, whose nickname is the Gators, hence the name. I have read that you're better off drinking water unless you're doing extreme exercise like long distance running or biking. In practice is gets used a lot more frequently than that.
