  • Lucozade is a British brand of soft drink manufactured and marketed by the Japanese company Suntory. Created as "Glucozade" in the UK in 1927 by a Newcastle pharmacist, William Walker Hunter (trading as W. Owen & Son), it was acquired by the British pharmaceutical company Beecham's in 1938 and sold as Lucozade, an energy drink for the sick. Its advertising slogan was "Lucozade aids recovery". It was sold mostly in pharmacies up until the 1980s before it was more readily available as a sports drink in shops across the UK. A glucose and water solution, the product was sold until 1983 as a carbonated, slightly orange-flavoured drink in a glass bottle wrapped in orange cellophane. Pharmacists sold it, children were given it when ill, and hospital visitors would regularly arrive with a bottle. It was rebranded in 1978 as a "pick me up", and as a sports drink in 1983, to associate it with health rather than sickness. The company switched to a plastic bottle and introduced a range of flavours. As of 2016, a 500 ml bottle contained 62 g (15.5 cubes) of sugar, more than Coca-Cola. In 2017, to avoid sugar tax, the drink was reformulated to contain 22.5 g of sugar per 500 ml of liquid, as well as the artificial sweeteners aspartame and acesulfame K. The UK’s No. 1 energy drink, it has been exported to Asia and Australasia. In 1989, the Beecham Group merged to form SmithKline Beecham, which further merged in 2000 to form GlaxoSmithKline. In September 2013, GlaxoSmithKline sold Lucozade and another soft drink, Ribena, to the Japanese drinks conglomerate Suntory for £1.35 billion. (en)
  • 루코제이드 (Lucozade)는 의료용 음료이다. 1927년 영국 뉴캐슬어폰타인 출신의 약사 윌리엄 오웬 (William Owen)이 독감이나 인플루엔자 바이러스에 쉽게 감염되는 사람들을 위해 개발되었다. 출시 당시 영국 대부분의 병원에서 '글루코제이드(Glucozade)'라는 제품명으로 환자들에게 공급되었으며, 1929년 현재의 '루코제이드'로 명칭이 변경되었다. 1938년에는 영국의 제약회사인 비샴그룹(Beecham Group plc)에 인수되었다. 과거 감기환자에게 사용되었던 루코제이드 제품의 슬로건은 'Lucozade aids recovery' (루코제이드는 회복을 돕는다)였으나 현재의 루코제이드는 스포츠 음료로써 'Lucozade replaces lost energy (루코제이드는 잃어버린 에너지를 채워준다)로 대체되었다. 설탕과 카페인이 다량 함유되어 미성년자에게는 부작용이 있을 수 있으므로 보호자의 지도가 따른다. EPL 선수들이 많이 음용하는 모습을 볼 수 있지만 대한민국에는 아직 정식 수입되고 있지 않다. (ko)
