They probably aren't great because of artificial colours and chemicals but I just had a diet monster anyway. Sugar free anything gives me the shits so there is that. I don't buy the isotonic meme though they just taste good and are less bland than water so easier to chug.

i always have one after i do cardio. i think they get a bad rap because people just drink them like whatever and don't actually use them for what they're made for. ie replenishing lost electrolytes

As opposed to those real chemicals like water?
Also artificial colours are, by law, fine for you.

Not true I get cramps in my hands from certain artificial colours, that shit aint fine.

artificial sweeteners aren't dangerous. although personally i'd drink a sugary sports drink for the high glycemic carbs
They're bad for your wallet, otherwise no.
They're just sugar alcohol sweeteners in water, sometimes with added sodium.
Buying them is stupid but it's not bad for you.
