THE BENEFITS
Lucozade Sport with Caffeine Boost is an isotonic sports drink which is proven to enhance an athlete's physical and mental performance.
Loss of fluid and reduction of the body's carbohydrate stores (glycogen stores in the muscles) are the two major causes of fatigue and reduced performance in pro-longed exercise or sport. More recently, top athletes are also realising that key mental attributes required in sport such as focus and concentration can also be impaired with fatigue.
Lucozade Sport with Caffeine Boost is formulated to tackle all three problems. It contains carbohydrate to help fuel the muscles, electrolytes to aid absorption of fluid into the body and caffeine to increase mental performance such as alertness, concentration, reaction times and focus. Lucozade Sport with Caffeine Boost is also an isotonic drink. This means it contains roughly the same concentration of particles as the body's blood plasma helping to encourage faster absorption into the body than higher carbohydrate drinks such as carbonated soft drinks or fruit juices.
WHEN IS IT RELEVANT?
Lucozade Sport with Caffeine is designed for endurance events or high intensity team events where you need to be on top of your game mentally and physically. Its ingredients are proven to enhance consistent work rate (running speed) helping athletes maintain speed for longer and cover more ground as well as enhance key attributes such as focus and concentration as well as decreasing the perception of effort.
Contains exactly the same as Lucozade Sport but with the addition of caffeine to enhance mental focus. Caffeine Boost is advised for long duration high intensity events in which focus and concentration are of particular importance.
Lucozade Sport Hydro Active
Contains fluid and electrolytes but unlike Lucozade Sport it has a low level of carbohydrate which is ideal when fuel replacement needs are low but hydration needs are high.
Lucozade Sport
Lucozade Sport is appropriate when under taking endurance activities in which hydration and carboydrate are required but the need for extra mental focus is not deemed necessary.
