<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">More than 40 years ago, a team of doctors at the University of Florida began to research why the University’s football team struggled to keep hydrated and maintain performance. They soon discovered that the Gator players were not adequately replacing what they were losing throughout practices and games. After some research, the doctors invented Gatorade, a carbohydrate-electrolyte beverage that featured a scientifically balanced blend of fluid, carbohydrates, and electrolytes that would encourage Gator players to rehydrate and refuel effectively. Today, Gatorade Thirst Quencher can be found on sports sidelines, at every level, all over the world.</p>
