## About Pedialyte

Pedialyte is designed to promote rehydration and electrolyte replacement in ill children. It "meets the requirements of the [American Academy of Pediatrics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Academy_of_Pediatrics) (AAP) Committee on Nutrition to help prevent dehydration in infants and children." Pedialyte is lower in sugars than most sports drinks, containing 100 calories per litre compared to approximately 240 in [Gatorade](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatorade). It contains more [sodium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium) (1,035 milligrams per litre vs. 465 mg/L in Gatorade) and [potassium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium) (780 milligrams per litre vs. 127 mg/L in Gatorade). Pedialyte does not contain [sucrose](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucrose), because this sugar has the potential to make diarrhoea worse by drawing water into the intestine, increasing the risk of dehydration. In its flavoured formulations, Pedialyte uses the synthetic sweeteners [sucralose](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucralose) and [acesulfame potassium](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acesulfame_potassium). Pedialyte has become a [hydration](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_replacement) alternative to sports drinks for some [athletes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athletes).
