LifeAid

I was on Instagram yesterday and got an ad for something incredible LifeAid, a line of beverages that are all meant to be drunk at different times.  Before going any further, I feel that it’s important to make clear that I have tried none of these beverages, but regardless, I feel like there is a lot that I have to say about them.  LifeAid itself comes in a Lemon Spice flavor and is meant to be drunk at anytime of day.  Something that I find interesting about it is that one of the “key supplements” included in LifeAid is cayenne which I personally never would have thought would belong in a beverage other than a Bloody Mary perhaps.

Another beverage offered by the LifeAid brand is FitAid which comes in a non-specific “citrus” flavor.  It takes a clear step further in terms of extreme-ness compared to its original counterpart LifeAid.  The most extreme, recommended use of LifeAid is when doing yoga or shopping.  FitAid, however, is reccomended to be used when at the gym, hiking, biking, or running.  Like LifeAid, FitAid also includes a surprising spice in turmeric.

FitAid also has its own spin-off product known as FitAid Fuel which comes in a little pouch.  They are meant to be consumed either before or after working out.  From pictures on the website, they seem to come in two flavors, tart-apple banana and tangy-apple sweet potato.  I could see either of those tasting alright, but I think tangy-apple sweet potato would likely be the better of the two because the fall flavors would work well together.

The next beverage is FocusAid.  This is the first beverage under the LifeAid brand which was recommended to me.  This beverage is considerably less extreme than FitAid, but honestly, can any beverage compete with the extreme extremity of FitAid, the absolute most extreme drink in existence?  This beverage is one that I’d guess would be much more suited for my own lifestyle seeing as I live a very unextreme life and that one of the suggested uses of the beverage is when gaming which I do pretty often.  The other suggested uses are for at work and school which leaves this sounding like one of the nerdier drinks made by LifeAid.  The flavor of FocusAid is listed as “Fusion Tea” which could be really good or absolutely terrible.  Fusion Tea is a really nonspecific name, and it’s never said what exactly the tea is “fused” with.

Following the totally lame FocusAid for losers is the totally radical PartyAid for major Chads*.  PartyAid helps you to party hardcore nonstop.  Oh yeah!  It’s intended use is, of course, before, during, AND after you party.  It comes in an awesome berry flavor, and one of the key supplements is milk thistle which I completely genuinely think sounds really cool.   (I’m not sure what it is, but it definitely sounds really cool.)  Unfortunately, I do not party all that often, so I don’t see this particular beverage of being especially of use to me.  Either way, I’d really like to try it alongside all of the other ones.

The penultimate beverage from LifeAid is none other than TravelAid.  Assumably needless to say, TravelAid is recommended to be used when one travels.  Specifically, the drink’s function seems to be to defend against diseases that one might encounter on transport systems such as buses, planes, and trains.  The flavor of this beverage is “Ginger Ale” which I imagine would be alright.  (I have no strong opinions on ginger ale; it’s acceptable and little else.)  Like LifeAid, TravelAid also contains turmeric, but this surprises me less seeing as it is ginger ale flavored.  On second thought, turmeric in lemon spice makes just as much sense.  I’m less interested by this one than most of the others, honestly.  Nothing much really strikes me about it.  This, however, is very different compared to the final LifeAid beverage.

This final beverage is the one that I am most interested in and the reason that I chose to write a blog about these at all.  That drink is GolferAid.  I personally find it absolutely hilarious that there would exist a drink specifically for golfing of all things.  I’m not sure why I find it so funny, but I undeniably do.  GolferAid comes in a “Tropical” flavor.  I’m not sure why the makers of GolferAid thought that “Tropical” was the best flavor for golfers, but as one who does not golf, I suppose I have not much room to speak.  For whatever reason, this drink also contains turmeric which, while I can understand it being included in “Lemon Spice” and “Ginger Ale”, I see no place for it in a flavor like “Tropical”.  I am still very eager to try GolferAid simply because the concept entertains me.

I am honestly excited to try all of these, and will likely be ordering the sample pack sometime soon.  If I do, I’ll probably turn this into a series with a review of each individual drink.  Comment and tell me if you think I should do that or stick to my usual, random, bloggy stuff.
