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.

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?

Motivator sweetened cacao
Morning Motivator drink mix mini review: As I mentioned in another review I have extensive professional & personal experience with maca. All of my maca comes from The Maca Team due to its very high quality. The Morning Motivator is a very good base for the highest quality maca drink. I drink it alone or with many combinations including some coffee if the mood hits me. It mixes well enough & the ingredients are top shelf in quality. A significant upgrade for your body vs coffee/caffeine. K

I had no improvement at all. To add in the nastiest taste, it is easy to say that I will never order this product again.

Add Some Color To Your Life
I habitually drink coffee every morning. I have for as long as I can remember. Before this product, my mornings felt bland. Coffee no longer felt enjoyable. It became a necessity and even some days a chore. This product gave my coffee that extra kick it needed. Not only do my energy levels last longer but now my mornings feel a bit more colorful. I keep my coffee very simple, sugar and half & half. Now I throw in 1/2 tbsp of TMM and my inner child smiles. Adding TMM makes my coffee tastes like hot chocolate...caffeinated hot chocolate? Yes, please! If I'm not in a rush and can enjoy my cup I'll add a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg. This is a game changer for all the coffee lovers out there, especially if you want to dial back a little on the bitterness. It doesn't stop there though. Not only has my coffee transformed, but my appetite has increased. I will say that the first day I used TMM, I got very nauseous. I normally skip breakfast so I don't usually get nauseous if I don't eat. However, this day I have never felt so sick. After I ate, the nausea went away and it's no longer a problem. Still, I highly recommend you eat something beforehand. I want to note that it took about two weeks for me to start developing an appetite. I've been on ADHD medication for a little over a year now and have since struggled with maintaining my appetite. Since adding TMM into my diet every day, I'm able to maintain and grow my appetite. TMM has also improved my mood a lot more, too. I highly recommend giving this a shot even just for a few weeks to see how it works for you.

Great product
We have been drinking "The Morning Motivator" for a couple of years now and can't live without it! We have more positive energy and feel the hormone support is also evident after we drink it. Awesome product! Thanks!

The Morning Motivator
Great for a pick me up and if you add your favourite sweetener it becomes a luxury hot drink! So far I have noticed improved cognitive function, general sense of calm and an ability to assess situations quickly!

Mornings with Maca!
I'm so happy a gave this product a try! I recently decided to cutback on my coffee intake and tried switching to dandelion root as well as another popular (but a bit expensive) alternative. I am delighted to say The Morning Motivator beats the others out by miles! And the price is amazing! I've been purchasing my maca products from the Maca Team since 2018. Very happy with the quality of their products. And extremely happy I tried the Morning Motivator. The taste is delicious and nutritious. I even found myself not lacking energy in the afternoons! Great product! Highly recommend it! Thanks Maca Team!

Morning Motivator
I have been drinking the Morning Motivator blend every morning for the past three years. I LOVE the way it tastes. The reason I ordered it was to test their claim that it can reduce hot flashes. After two weeks of this daily hot drink in the morning, it did just what they said it would! My hot flashes were reduced by at least 75%. I stock up on this maca blend now :)
