    If you are dehydrated from an illness typically something Gatorade or water with a bit of salt in it will help you hydrate better then just water.

      Salt AND sugar (glucose) , when both consumed at the same time, activate transport channels in the bowel that increase water uptake. Not to say you need as much sugar or salt in Gatorade, liquid IV etc.

        It’s called Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS) and it’s 4 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons sugar.
