Pastor Mark,
I wasn't joking about the gaiderade.  A doctor told me a few years 
ago that when you have an upset stomach, you should drink a sport 
drink rather than water.  When you are sick, and are losing fluids at 
either end, (GRIN!) you are also depleting your 
electrolytes.  Anyway, if you drink water to try to replace your 
fluids, you dilute them even more and can actually send yourself into 
shock if your situation is bad enough.  Sports drinks replace the 
balance almost immediately and it is absolutely amazing how fast the 
recovery occurs.  With my kids, they can recover in hours.  Give it a 
try!  It can't hurt.
