How To Use The Morning Motivator

We recommend mixing The Morning Motivator into your favorite beverage, warm or cold. Water and juice work well, though almond milk and rice milk are especially popular. You can also add it to smoothies.

For many people, 1 tablespoon (9 g) of powder works well with 8 ounces of liquid. You can increase or decrease the amount based on your taste preferences.

It is also useful to note that 1 tablespoon (9 g) of The Morning Motivator contains approximately 1 teaspoon (3 g) of maca powder. If you normally use a larger daily serving of maca, you may choose to take additional maca separately.

Because this blend is intended for morning or daytime use, many customers prefer using it earlier in the day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is The Morning Motivator raw or pre-cooked?

The ingredients in The Morning Motivator are raw except for the maca, which is gelatinized, or pre-cooked. We use gelatinized maca because many people find it easier to digest than raw maca.

Does The Morning Motivator replace my regular maca?

That depends on how much maca you usually use. One tablespoon of the blend contains about one teaspoon of maca. For some people that may cover their usual serving, while others may prefer to continue taking additional maca separately.

How many times a day can I take The Morning Motivator?

Because this blend is used as a food, serving frequency is largely a matter of personal preference. Many people enjoy it once or twice earlier in the day.

Does The Morning Motivator contain caffeine?

No. The Morning Motivator is completely caffeine-free.

What if I am sensitive to cacao or rich foods?

Individual tolerance can vary. If you are sensitive to cacao or other concentrated foods, start with a smaller amount and adjust gradually based on your own experience.

Can I use The Morning Motivator if I prefer less sweetness?

Yes. We also offer an unsweetened version of The Morning Motivator.

Can children use The Morning Motivator?

Because this is a whole-food blend, some families choose to serve smaller amounts. Individual preferences and tolerance may vary.

Are there any side effects?

As with any food, individual tolerance can vary. If you have concerns about any ingredient, start with a smaller amount.

Can I use The Morning Motivator with medications, herbs, or supplements?

If you use medications or have specific health concerns, consult a qualified healthcare professional before adding any new food product to your routine.

Safety

Maca root is classified as a food and is generally recognized as safe for consumption. It has been used traditionally for centuries as a natural food source in the Andes.

There are no known contraindications to taking maca root products. However, individuals who are taking medications for high blood pressure should consult their healthcare provider before use, as maca may have a mild blood pressure–lowering effect in some people.

Maca naturally contains iodine, which is important to note for those who are sensitive to iodine or have thyroid conditions requiring restricted iodine intake.

As with any food or supplement, individuals who are pregnant, nursing, or under medical supervision should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using maca.

    Love this alternative to my coffee!

    Posted by klweb on 27th Apr 2018

    I like the Maca products already, I have used the Red powder and the Red Maca root extract. The Maca Team produces a quality product at a very reasonable price and I will continue to buy from them. The Morning Motivator Blend is a great tasting product to give me energy and even a touch of sweetness without a crash of caffeine or sugar! I generally mix as they suggest in a cup of warm Almond or Cashew milk and drink it like that mid morning, what a treat! I also use it in smoothies and it's great! Keep up the good work!

    Great maca-chocolate product

    Posted by Unknown on 25th Apr 2018

    I just recently ordered this new product. Not being a smoothie person I have mixed some of the powder in Greek yogurt for an afternoon snack. It has a subtly sweet and chocolate flavor which is nice

    Wholesome and cozy wakeup ritual beverage

    Posted by Unknown on 23rd Apr 2018

    I gave up coffee about a year ago because it started giving me palpitations and a jittery feeling, and ever since I have been on the hunt to find a hot morning beverage that I can wake up in the morning and actually look forward to drinking. I've tried all the chicory root and dandelion blends out there without really liking any of them, and tea just didn't give me the feeling I was look for. I was about to give up when I saw this email from the Match Team about the morning motivator and all I can say is YAY! This is quite good! I find I add a bit more than the 1 tbsp. serving suggestion to get the punch of flavor I am looking for, but the drink is thick and creamy and I top it off with a few pinches of cayenne pepper for an extra kick. I feel good, none of those jittery caffeine feelings that coffee gives me, yet I still get the cozy feeling I need with a morning hot drink ritual.

    Another Great MACA Product!

    Posted by James on 20th Apr 2018

    I hadn't been taking maca for a while. But I got an e-mail on the new Morning Motivator product and ordered it because it sounded tasty and the price was very reasonable. I started mixing a tablespoon full with unsweetened coconut milk. It was delicious and killed any hunger or cravings while giving me a boost of energy and mental alertness. I plan to keep reordering it!

    So Tasty. My New Comfort Food!

    Posted by Lori on 20th Apr 2018

    I wake up in the morning and can't wait to drink my large cup of Morning Motivator. I am not really a coffee drinker, but I had been drinking one cup every morning for the past couple of years. This is way more fun for me, and I love the fact that it doesn't stress my adrenals. I stay as low carb as I can, so I try to limit myself to just a cup in the morning. I use cream, mct oil, and collegen in it.

    Sooooooo Good!

    Posted by Tina on 20th Apr 2018

    I have been on this for couple of weeks and can see a difference after taking it. I mix it in warm milk and it tastes just like hot chocolate.
