What type of sugar in it? Sucrose? Fructose? High fructose corn syrup? Or glucose.

Because sugar type matters.

Might no be glucose. Because 100 plus is sweet.

implying glucose is not sweet? what logic is this?

it is very hard to know what type of sugar as there is such thing called ingredient list on every bottle/ can that people find very hard to turn the item around and read it

maybe I dont finish my statement yet. Most manufacturer dont put details what kind of sugar they use. Considering profit/efficiency for companies nowadays, they likely use high fructose corn syrup
(fructose alone is 1.7 sweeter than glucose -thus need less to produce more).

In nature, fructose come together with Sucrose and Fibre. but nowadays they manage to extract fructose alone.

Fructose is foreign to our body sugar absorption system, and it takes Liver to do the hardwork to metabolize it. Once Liver is overloaded with processing fructose, it lost its vitality.
some kind of stress substance, such as ALT rises.

I think government/FDA should make it mandatory for manufacturer to put in what kind of sugar source they use.

I should say before 100 plus is too sweet. Not just sweet

hope this clarifies.

Bad.

Gassy.

Too sweet.

Eat it after meal, stomach discomfort.

I changed to Gatorade; but now stopping that too.

Now Gatorade own by Pepsi. A name synonymous with sweet drinks.
For me plain/mineral water is the best.
