No, however there are several acidic ingredients such as Absorbic Acid and Citric acid which can give you terrible stomach ulcers. If I were you, I wouldn't advise drinking Lucozade. There are other healthier alternatives like apples and bananas which are great energy boosters.

How does lucozade effect performance?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Scientifically, I don't know this answer to this, but generally speaking, yes. I have found that drinking too much Lucozade is bad for me. Drinking Lucozade whenever I feel thirsty all day every day leaves me feeling very sick and as though acid is continually building up in my system.
As someone who has been diagnosed with Epilepsy, I suffer from what is called 'myoclonic jerks' or 'twitches' and these become noticeably worse as my intake of Lucozade increases and I therefore have had to cut back on how often I drink it, only buying one bottle when in need of an energy boost if I am ill or on the rare occasion when my blood sugar level can be known to drop.

In conclusion, I don't believe that Lucozade is bad for your health when it is consumed in moderation, however when the intake of this particular drink exceeds two per day, a negative effect can be the only result.

Why is Lucozade better than water for marathon?

Asked by Wiki User

Here is the ingredient list of Lucozade from their website:

Carbonated Water, Glucose Syrup (26%), Citric Acid, Lactic Acid, Flavourings (including Caffeine), Preservatives (Sodium Benzonate, Sodium Bisulphate), Antioxidant (Ascorbic Acid), Colour (Sunset Yellow).

Sugar content of Lucozade: 68 grams (per 12.85 ounces).

As you can see, there is an awful lot of sugar in that drink - there are 4 grams per teaspoonful, so this drink has ...

... wait for it ...

17 teaspoonfuls of sugar in each bottle!

There is also 46 milligrams of caffeine in each bottle - this is about the same amount of caffeine is a good cuppa, but less than a Starbucks Espresso.
