More information about drinking clear liquids such as Gatorade before your surgery to help you recover sooner!<\/p>\n

You might have been given instructions that you may drink clear liquids<\/span> up until 2 hours before your surgery’s scheduled arrival time, and to drink a small 12oz. bottle of Gatorade 2 hours before your surgery’s scheduled arrival time. <\/span><\/p>\n

You may choose any flavor of Gatorade you wish, just be sure that it is not a low or zero calorie version, as the carbohydrates in Gatorade help give your body energy for the surgery. Do NOT consume a non-clear version of Gatorade, such as the protein-enhanced kinds.<\/span><\/p>\n

For more information about drinking Gatorade as part of an Enhanced Recovery pathway, please see our Patient Education Series <\/a>section! <\/span><\/p>\n
