I've seen claims like this often and would really like to know where this info comes from. The expiry date I've personally seen on bottled water or Gatorade is measured in YEARS. Just my opinion, but if that bottle can't be reused a couple times over a couple weeks - I can't see how the original contents would still be OK after 4 years either. So I think maybe things are being exaggerated just a little.
