When at U of Florida for law school in the mid-1970s, I met Dr. Cade briefly. He was a conservative and a fine gentleman.
Met Dr.Cade when he and investors were introducing another sports drink which would aid intensive multi-day workouts and replace amino acids for rapid muscle recovery. Several decades ago.
Dr. Cade was a nephrologist interested in treating/researching the effect of kidney malfunction on schizophrenia. The U. of FL sued Cade for use of the medical library in developing Gatorade. He had a full laboratory in his basement and their case was a real stretch- cause he developed the electrolyte replacement drink on his own, with his own knowledge. The U. of FL continues to this day from the award of that suit of 1 penny per gallon equivalent Gatorade (powder or liquid branded product sold by whatever company has bought it since). A heck of a lot of royalties.
