Lucozade Sport Raspberry, 4 x 500ml

Product Information

Lucozade comes in the form of liquid in either a can or plastic bottle, or it can come in the form of a tablet. The tablets have the flavours of either orange or the original flavour. [24] Lucozade contains 0.01% ethanol (alcohol), which meant that observant Muslims could not drink it. However, in 2004, the Muslim Council of Britain ruled that they saw no harm in consuming Lucozade which contains traces of ethyl alcohol that do not bear its original qualities and do not change the taste, colour or smell. GlaxoSmithKline pointed out that fruit juices and bread could also contain the same or higher trace amounts of alcohol due to natural fermentation. [30] Variants [ edit ] Acesulfame-K is an artificial sweetener with zero calories and a bad reputation. In the 1970s, animal studies suggested that acesulfame-K has carcinogenic properties. However, further research, including evidence published in PLoS One, revealed that the initial acesulfame-K studies were severely flawed. The research findings are inadequate. Following its rebranding as a sports drink, high-profile athletic figures in British pop culture have promoted Lucozade in television commercials, beginning with Olympic decathlon champion Daley Thompson in 1983, followed by sporting figures such as Olympic sprint champion Linford Christie, footballers John Barnes and Alan Shearer, rugby player Jonny Wilkinson, and Tomb Raider heroine Lara Croft. [14] Purpose and effectiveness [ edit ] Sponsored by Lucozade, footballer John Barnes appeared in an early 1990s commercial, stating: "this is Isotonic Lucozade Sport, it gets to your thirst, fast". [20] The strategy will need to revolve around getting it into the hands of content creators, YouTubers etc,” he says. “It’ll be down to that, and how [much] they can get university campuses and playgrounds awash with the product. You need to get people to go crazy about it.”

You CAN get Lucozade Original and other flavours in the US, but it probably won't be as simple as heading down to a local shop (assuming your local shop isn't a British goods store).The FDA considers acesulfame-K to be a safe sugar alternative, but many watchdog groups believe the artificial sweetener needs to undergo more stringent testing.

Suntory is also to switch its Lucozade Energy brand to 30% rPET bottles and move to a half-sized sleeve in 2022. A fully transparent sleeve for the Lucozade Energy bottles is being rolled out now. Lucozade is a popular carbonated energy drink made in the United Kingdom. This sparkling drink contains caffeine, antioxidants, sugar, and artificial sweeteners.

That’s about the same as a cup of tea. So, you might get an energy boost from Lucozade drinks, but you’re also getting a dose of other ingredients that increase your risk of side effects.
