I've been using this drink for about 3 years now and I just wanted to brag about it. It hasn't been in the U.S. much except for Texas where it is quickly growing in popularity. It's called Eload. www.eload.net
Basically, it has twice the electrolyte content of Gatorade, no artificial ingredients, 35x less acidic than Gatorade, has 5 electrolytes and uses dextrose as primary carb (used in oral hydration solutions in hospitals). Dextrose is the most efficient carb to prevent bonking, facilitate the absorption of electrolytes and is high glycemic which means it works quickly and doesn't require any processing by your stomach or liver. The medical doctor who designed it worked in a natural lactic buffer (to reduce muscle burn) by using the "citrate" form of 3 out of the 5 electrolytes. He uses calcium in a carbonate form to help settle your stomach too. Dr. Stoddard is the former Medical Director of the Subaru Series Ironman and specializes in hydration for athletes. This is the only product I know of that has a money back guarantee that if you cramp, bonk, or get an upset stomach, the company will refund your money. You can get it
