A new way to prevent DCS!

Actually I am using G2 now.
INTRODUCING G2 | Gatorade

Gatorade is WAY too much sugar for the average person. For prolonged endurance and serious physical output, it's great!! I think it would be great between dives but not for everyday hydration. Water still wins on that one.

Ditto that. The amount of salt in Gatorade is more appropriate for sweating for long periods, but probably wouldn't help much for diving. (I just checked the can, and one serving has 210 mg of sodium, 9% of your daily recommended dose, presumably not including a lot of sweat.)

I'm still uncertain whether or not that 'extra' sodium in your blood stream might be pulling enough water out of your cells and intervascular spaces to have any impact on DCS, although you might infer from knotical's link that it doesn't.
