To whom it may concern, I am writing to you in relation to a product I am interested in; - Lucazade Sport Pro Muscle All in One Powder Small Tub (Chocolate). I would greatly appreciate if you could tell me whether this product and it's ingredients (even the ingredients that aren't mentioned on the tub) are permitted by the WADA (World Anti- Doping Agency) for international sporting and whether they are listed on it's prohibited list or not? I would greatly appreciate if you could reply to this question as soon as possible. Much appreciated.

LUCAZADE protein drink is made of Whey protein.
Whey proteins are derived from milk and consists of Lactalbumin and Lactoglobulin and has highest bioavailability (easily absorbed). These are considered as health drinks or dietary supplements and does not come under category of performance enhancing drugs. So it is NOT BANNED UNDER WADA list of substances.
