of traditional energy drinks.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The reality star reportedly began using the product for an energy boost in 2023 and started offering unsolicited feedback the following year, which led to a partnership, according to a press release obtained by Forbes.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kim Kardashian\u00a0made a surprise appearance at Walmart to promote her new Update energy drinks.
