A member asked:
Is orange juice better than gatorade when your sick?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: The protocol that I have seen used with most success. If you are vomiting give your stomach a rest for a few hours. Then frequent sips of warm flat ginger ale (two anti nausea ingredients; sugar solution and ginger) or water. Gatorade can also be useful and is more easily added if diarrhea is a factor.
