I was thinking 🤔.. when you drink blue powerade where does the blue go?


When you realise that you also don't know where the blue goes and now you're having a mental break down about it too:
The blue colour in blue Powerade is a dye called FCF blue synthesized organically for food dyes. It contains an organic compound Triphenylmethane as a back bone. The colours in most chical compounds is due to the oxidation state or structural formula.
When you drink the Powerade, the compound is synthesised into a different compound in your body therefore losing its blue colour.
It by no means stain your insides because the body can synthesise like any organic food. Infact it is no different from the blue berries you eat. And yet when you eat the blue berries your insides stay the same.
Colour is a qualitative nature of chemistry. It's an indicator of what chemical changes take place. Whether it be organic, inorganic or physical chemistry.
Actually, @wittymilf. If you are vegetables, that could be it. Vegetables are the one food that has the ability to make your poop green.
I don't think it's the Powerade though. Most of waste from the Powerade, would have passed as urine. I think I will not say anymore because the next things I say might be personal.
I would say though that there is no cause to worry.
You seem to take your health and fitness seriously. You know what, I will say no more. This is a public space.
You are good don't worry about it.
Have you ever looked in the toilet after you go. I bet it's blue too. LOL

The "blue" is part of the raspberry flavour E numbers package that goes into such drinks.
The body breaks down the isotonic fluid and absorbs it.
Since it is just a coloring and isn't really blue, it gets dissipated throughout your system, mainly your bone structure because food colorings usually have gelatin in them.
One thing I noticed is that if I mixed all the colors of paint on a palette, instead of greying something interesting, I get this ugly brown or grey.
Into your blood. And it stains your insides. And it eventually starts coming out in your hair. Ahhhhhh!!! 😖😖😖
I dunno. 😎
Hey Rocky watch me pull a rabbit out of my!!!
Apparently your kidneys working... at least for now. You're old!🤣
The blue is absorbed by the body same with those electrolytes to help you cure your hangover haha 😉👌😂
Check your darker urine and poo. Silly kids. Pay attention in school.
have you ever wondered why poop is always brown, even though what you eat is often not brown?
Check your droppings and sober up :)
Your bottles have cool packaging over there. I wish our bottles looked like that.
Chemical reactions can change the color of substances.
I don't know I drink all colors and its never any different
I'd rather not find out. But I do know when I eat mushy peas my pee goes green 🤣🤣🤣
I drink other flavors too. I have rainbow poop!
With all the other food coloring mixed together in your intestinal tract to come out as brown (which is a mixture of all of the colors).
Don't worry blue and turmoil. Make yellow
Sometimes the color stays in your toungue.
You absorb the blue...

It turns ur poop blue
Your kidneys filter it out
It breaks it down and your body metabolizes it
