I feel like I’m getting mixed responses when it comes to drinking Gatorade more. I find I feel a little light headed after strenuous exercising in the gym.
Is Gatorade with electrolytes only for if you get very sweaty in the gym or can it be consumed either way? I don’t always get very sweaty after working out but sometimes I do.

It can be consumed regardless, but it’s only going to be beneficial if you have lost a lot of fluids. So sweating a lot (or really bad diarrhea).
Even then it is only marginally beneficial and just about anyone besides like professional athletes where every single tiny nearly immeasurable amount of performance they can gain is important won’t get a whole lot out of it.
The reason it doesn’t really matter to non-athetes is that sure even after a big work out you probably need some electrolytes. But water and literally any food would probably get the job done.
