It matters if you work outside in the summer months like I do. I can’t physically hydrate fast enough some days. So I end up a little worse each day of the week. Something that hydrates better starts to sound pretty good. For 99% of people? Just drink water.
Edit: I just read the article and milk is (one of) the answer(s). I tell my coworkers every year during heat illness training that if I go down and they give me milk I’m coming up swinging.
Just gonna pop in here to yell at the clouds. I hate the name “Liquid I.V.” for a powdered sports drink. It’s none of the things. It’s a dry-ass powder that doesn’t go in your veins. Fuck. And it’s presumably meant to evoke the emergency dehydration scenario of world-class athletes dying on the sideline, hooked up to saline drips to keep their muscles from cramping inside-out. Everything about the branding is crap.

Liquid iv will keep you alive. Also salty snacks.

The product itself is fine though.
INTRODUCING THE ALL-NEW SOLID ORAL™ SPORTS HYDRATION
SOLUTIONDRINKTHING!Salty snacks is my go to. I don’t really like liquid IV or Gatorade etc. I’ll drink a liquid IV if it’s really hot, but I’m big on plain, flat water.
I guess I’m screwed. I can’t have too much salt or I get dizzy/vertigo. Stupid Menieres disease
