Steven Seagal's Asian Experience Lightning Bolt Energy Drink is the first energy drink to be made of 100-percent juice, and the first to contain Tibetan Goji berries and Asian cordyceps. It is also available in Cherry Charge flavor.

The Lightning Bolt Story
When martial arts movie star Steven Seagal traveled to Asia searching for the ingredients for his Lightning Bolt drink he wanted a universal Asian character to summarize the drink's benefits. Seagal settled on the character known as "CHI" which is widely recognized as a symbol of power and energy in many Asian languages and cultures. When Seagal finished creating his drink, there was only one equivalent in nature -- the lightning bolt. Both mysterious and powerful, it is a symbol of the untold energy the earth has to offer.

Wonderful, unique ingredients
The ingredients of Steven Seagal's Lightning Bolt are what makes this energy so impressive. Each component was carefully chosen by Seagal to incorporate the greatest treasures of Asian medicine into an all natural energy boost. The Asian Experience flavor is delicious, but it is the ingredients that make this drink so special.

Goji berries
For thousands of years Tibetan Goji berries have been used in Asian medicine and were said to be the key to perfect health. Years of research have demystified this amazing fruit, and new discoveries are still being made. Goji berries are rich in vitamin C; they have a high iron content; and they contain polysaccarides which fortify the immune system. In addition, Goji berries contain high concentrations of the amino acid chain L-Leucine and 18 other amino acids, 21 trace minerals, linoleic acid, thiamine, riboflavin, betain, and B vitamins. The Goji berry may even help lower blood pressure and cholesterol.

Ginseng and Guarana
Translated, the word "ginseng" means "wonder of the world." This root is a treasure that has been used for over 5000 years to improve overall energy and vitality, particularly during times of fatigue or stress. Guarana is an incredible berry that is native to Brazil and other parts of South America. It has been used for centuries as an energy booster and research has discovered that its inherent element guaranine is chemically identical to caffeine.

Asian Cordyceps
Asian cordyceps are said to be one of the most rare and treasured herbs used in Chinese and Tibetan medicine. Seagal discovered the benefits of cordyceps while researching immune builders in Asia. Cordyceps are used to promote energy, vitality, and longevity. This rare herb will only grow in isolated regions of Asia in areas above three thousand meters. Studies show that in addition to immunity response, cordyceps can decrease blood pressure, improve bioenergy status of the liver, and promote endurance.

Ginkgo Biloba
The Chinese have been using Ginkgo for centuries to relieve asthma, lung congestion, regulate blood flow, and promote general longevity. This herb, which is derived from the Ginkgo tree, increases blood flow to the brain and blood vessels, delivering enhanced levels of oxygen and nutrients. It is often touted as a key to health and longevity. Ginkgo Biloba also acts a powerful antioxidant that can combat undesirable elements that may lead to premature aging. This herb is most popularly used as a brain function enhancer. It can greatly benefit memory and mental alertness, while helping to reduce mental fatigue and lack of energy.

Yerba Mate and Green Tea
Yerba Mate is made from the leaves of a South American tree whose rich leaves provide the flavor and natural stimulants to keep your body energized. The tea is revered for its energy giving properties and its ability to stimulate clarity of mind and thought expansion. Users often note improved memory function and enhanced train of thought. For over 5000 years people have been drinking green tea for its healing elements and its ability to give strong support to the immune system. Unlike black and oolong tea, green tea is not fermented and, thus, it keeps its powerful antioxidants. Known benefits include lowered blood pressure, boosted immune system, and lowered cholesterol.

B-Vitamins
B3, or Niacin, is needed to metabolize food and to maintain healthy skin, nerves, and gastrointestinal tract. Niacin can also be used to help lower cholesterol. B6, or Pyridoxine, is needed to breakdown carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is also used in red blood cell production and biochemical reactions involved in the metabolism of amino acids. B12, or Cyanocobalamin, is needed for processing carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is also vital for red blood cell production, maintaining nerve sheaths, and the synthesis and repair of DNA.

The Asian Experience is sweetened with an imported sugarcane juice concentrate that is all natural, but contains policosanols that can help reduce cholesterol. All of these healthy ingredients combine to produce a tasty drink that provides natural, healthy, and long lasting energy in a single 16 ounce can.

Indications and Safety Information
Not recommended for children or persons sensitive to caffeine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Math grades went up, July 7, 2006

After taking on the "Asian Experience" I found that I was able to score much higher on math tests. The taste was horrible, and my penis got smaller but it really helped with midterms.

I can't wait for the Chuck Norris' Roundhouse of power Energy drink they are coming out with this summer. I hear it can cure kidney disease because it is made of synthasized snot someone stole from a tissue Chuck used.

1.0 out of 5 stars so horrid it brought tears to my eyes., April 15, 2006

I am surprised at the other glowing reviews for this drink, for I found it to taste terrible and provide no extra energy.

A bunch of us at work got a case of this as a joke. The reaction at the first sip was universal: "This is BAD." Half of them couldn't even finish theirs, it was that nasty tasting. The flavor is actually passable -- kind of like mixed apple and prune juice -- but the aftertaste is the true killer. Half way through mine I decided to chug the rest, just to get it over with. It brought tears to my eyes, it did -- and I have pictures to prove it.

The worst part, though, was that none of us got any type of energy boost from it. I actually drank two more cans later -- mostly on dares. After three cans over an 8-hour work day, I was tired and actually went home and took a cat-nap for an hour.

If you are looking for some sort of "Fear Factor" challenge or gag prank, then get some. Otherwise, avoid this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Tastes good at first, then gets annoying... too pricey..., December 24, 2005

I ordered this on a whim, mainly because there was a $20 rebate for it, bringing the price down to $29.99.

My initial taste reaction was that it was surprisingly very good. Carbonated... and, I can't really describe the rest of the taste, but I just liked it. I did feel as if I also felt better overall because of the B-vitamins.

Over time, drinking two a day, a week or so into it, the taste started getting annoying, like I was getting tired of it. I stopped drinking it for a week or so, and the first can tasted fine again.

As for the price, this is NOT worth $50 for 24 cans. It was, however, worth the $30 after rebate.
