Isn't gatorade a combo of salt, sugar, water and potassium? So basically, a banana with some salt on it and lots of water.
There’s no way Gatorade has more potassium than a banana, it has like 2% your DV or something miniscule like that.
Yea, a banana has roughly 5.5x the amount of potassium
I highly doubt a banana has what plants crave
It has what plantains crave.
You're onto something
well potassium is one of the main ingredients in fertilizers, also it has good amount of nitrogen compounds and composts quite fast so i would say that bananas do have what plants crave
You don't think someone could make their own?
That's defintiely something someone could do. I've done it myself. It's just not the same as a banana.
What was your recipe? That's my point. The original gatorade was I think oj, salt and sugar, yeah?
Technically potassium is a salt too.
Once I heard neurons described as "salty bananas" because of their concentrations of K+, Na+, and Cl- ions.
Therefore, Gatorade is made of neurons.
