WHO WE ARE: Lucozade Sport is the number one sports drink*. We continue to work closely with leading coaches, elite athletes, academics and sports professionals to advance our knowledge and understanding of what it takes to succeed at the highest level.

WHAT WE DO: We are dedicated to providing education on the latest advances in sports science and nutrition to help everyone get the most out of their sport. Like the athletes who drink Lucozade Sport, we strive for success, and are committed to maintaining our positioning at the cutting edge of sports science and nutrition.

HOW WE SCREEN OUR PRODUCTS FOR CONTAMINAnts: Analytical techniques have been developed by the very best laboratories within doping control. This means our products have been through the WADA accreditation process to determine the presence (or otherwise) of substances that are banned by WADA. We use a screen developed by HFL Sport Science, one of the world’s largest sports doping control and research labs, to test their supplement products for inadvertent contamination with WADA banned steroids and stimulants. This ensures our products are safe for elite athletes to use. All supplement testing at HFL is carried out to ISO 17025 standards – a vital laboratory accreditation for carrying out supplement testing. Although it is only elite athletes who are subjected to regular testing for banned substances, we maintain this additional and rigorous quality testing to make sure that all our consumers (i.e. not just the elite athletes) are getting the highest quality products. We have been using HFL’s testing service since 2004. Well over 2000 products have been tested since then and no contamination issues have ever been found. And in addition to regular banned substance testing, all products manufactured by GSK are made in line with GMPs (Good Manufacturing Practices) to check their products are safe, pure and effective.

Dehydration and a reduction in the body’s carbohydrate stores are known to be two key causes of fatigue in sports where endurance is crucial to performance. Consequently, sport nutrition guidelines are focused on strategies to enhance carbohydrate availability in the periods before, during and after exercise.

FOCUS Although sports differ in the physical and mental demands, what does not change is the need to provide fuel for the exercising muscles and fluid required to stay hydrated. Integral to endurance is also a need to perform mentally, including the ability to focus, concentrate and react.

RECOVERY Rapid recovery after exercise is vital if you train regularly and want to get the most from your performance. Recovery is the ability to restore exercise capacity, or more simply get the body back to where it was before exercise. From a nutritional point of view recovery requires carbohydrate to replace that used during exercise, protein to help repair damaged muscles and fluid to replace that lost as sweat.

STRENGTH Strength is an important element of fitness, for both men and women no matter what sport you’re involved in. Strength is defined as the ability of an individual to produce a maximal force against a resistance, although many may also include ‘power’ and ‘building muscle’ as similar descriptions. Developments in strength are gained from an effective resistance-based training programme in combination with suitable nutritional strategies.
