    The best thing to drink is Gatoraide because when you throw up your body looses electrolytes that are essential for your body to function. Sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. These electrolytes play a big role in keeping your heart beating. If they get seriously low it is dangerous. So keep pumping electrolytes into your stomach.
