absolutely!! i'm 28, been working in auto shops for 6 years and was diagnosed 4 months ago with type 1. pedialyte has been an absolute lifesaver!! i used to survive on gatorade, 2-3 liters a day. that's too much sugar for being insulin dependent. i switched to pedialyte and the Walmart brand (which tastes awful at first, definitely an acquired taste) but works just as well and without the excessive sugars found in sports drinks (25g carbs/liter in pedialyte vs about 65g carbs/liter in gatorade). i started diluting pedialyte with water to about 50/50 which seems to be just as effective to help against dehydration.
