WHAT IS A COFFEE ENHANCING SUPPLEMENT?

SuperCube is the world’s first coffee enhancing supplement! Handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, it far surpasses the effectiveness, quality, formulation and intention of those powdered blends out there pretending to be coffee. It is one of a kind and contains EVERYTHING you need for better focus, steadier energy, less stress, hormone support and MORE!

A coffee enhancing supplement is a “stack” of various medicinals used to enhance everything that is amazing about coffee and caffeine, to reduce the unwanted side effects, and to support your long term health.

The medicinal stack of SuperCube contains superfoods, functional mushrooms, nootropics, Chinese herbs, essential fats, collagen peptides, MCT oil, vitamins and minerals, and a lot of love.

It is so easy to incorporate SuperCube into your morning caffeine routine, where it deeply supports the nervous, endocrine, immune and hormone systems of the body.

WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?

Deliciously Decadent! SuperCube boasts a creamy and nutritious profile designed to complement the bold flavors of coffee while enhancing rich chocolate notes and sweetness. Unlike traditional bitter caffeinated beverages, it adds a delightful twist to any cup. Our formula, crafted by Lara Dilkes L.Ac MSAOM FNLP, balances cacao and cardamom with subtle earthy undertones, a hint of salt, and a touch of berry for a flavor-packed experience. Think of it as a fluffy latte baby, melting into your coffee with a texture akin to a cloud colliding with a cup of oat milk. Each sip is not just a treat but a nourishing boost, ensuring every organ, tissue, gland, and fluid gets its moment to shine!

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT TO FEEL LIKE WHILE DRINKING?

Clear, calm, focused, sustained energy. A SuperCube induced state of creative euphoria and energetic bliss. Side effects may include feeling clear, calm, focused and deeply energized.

As one of our SuperCube subscribers says, “I feel like the best version of myself”. You can expect to feel all the amazing benefits that come from coffee, like enhanced cognitive focus, more creative flow, an energy increase and that wake-you-up feeling. You can also expect to notice much less of what sucks about coffee, like the coffee crash, digestive upset, headaches, caffeine sweats, jitters and muscle tension.

HOW DOES SUPERCUBE SUPPORT HORMONE BALANCE?

SuperCube supports hormone balance in 3 main ways: 1) by supporting the nervous system, 2) by strengthening the immune system and 3) by balancing blood sugar. It also provides nutrients needed for all of the body systems.

A supported and calm nervous system is the primary way to lay down the foundation for the hormone symphony to play out successfully.

DOES SUPERCUBE HAVE LONG TERM BENEFITS?

YES. This is exactly why SuperCube is the superior choice! It is different than any other “caffeine substitute” because it is specifically formulated for you to feel calm, clear, sustained energy in one cup, AND to support deep nourishment with long term use.

SuperCube’s long term benefits include support for a regulated nervous system, a resilient immune system, comfortable digestion, balanced blood sugar and a steady hormone rhythm. Our customers consistently tell us that with daily use their energy, their cycles and their mornings feel different, and that the afternoon crash stops running the show.

CAN MEN DRINK SUPERCUBE?

Yes, your husband can use SuperCube! BOTH men and women will reap the benefits of SuperCube, and they include so much more than hormone support.

WHO FORMULATED IT AND WHY?

SuperCube was meticulously developed by Lara Dilkes L.Ac, MSAOM FNLP and Herbalist, who suffered from debilitating hemiplegic migraines. She tried numerous approaches, including cutting out coffee, balancing blood sugar, adjusting exercise routines around her cycle, and eliminating specific foods. Giving up coffee helped her more than almost anything else she tried, and it remained a significant loss. Out of that disappointment, a brilliant idea was born!

Determined to find something that would give her the same enjoyment and ritual as coffee without the cost to her body, Lara spent a decade experimenting with a blend of herbs, teas, medicinal ingredients, fats, proteins, and more in her Vitamix. Through trial and error, she landed on the formula that became SuperCube. As a single mom managing two businesses in the wellness industry, Lara credits her daily ritual with supporting smoother periods, sustained energy, a steadier stress response, and better cognitive function through perimenopause.

IS SUPERCUBE BACKED BY STUDIES OR SCIENCE?

Yes! SuperCube is rooted in science! It is more than a lifestyle product, it is a supplement meant for long term daily use. Physiology and pathology are the primary “science” behind the foundation of SuperCube, and the sciences of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Functional Nutrition play a huge role in its formulation.

While SuperCube itself has not been double blind placebo tested, its core medicinal ingredients have been studied in human clinical research, and we reference that research throughout our blog and ingredient pages.

WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE SUPERCUBE OVER OTHER COFFEE ADDITIVES?

Ditch the dust! SuperCube enhances the coffee you already love rather than replacing it. Unlike other functional mushroom blends that often serve as coffee substitutes, which end up needing additional ingredients like collagen or MCT oil to make them work like coffee, SuperCube enhances your coffee ritual without the fuss. We are all about keeping your routine intact while making it healthier with just one cup and delivering long term benefits.

Other brands typically offer powdered mushroom blends with one extra ingredient for marketing and flavor. While functional mushrooms are beneficial, they often miss the mark on addressing your body’s full stress response, and they may not fully capitalize on coffee’s perks!

SUPERIOR QUALITY AND SOURCING

Our functional mushrooms are grown on wood as they would be in nature, never on grain or other substrates. The majority of commercial producers grow mushrooms on grains like rice, oats, or sorghum, and all that grain becomes inseparable from the mycelium and fruiting body, remains in the final product, and leads to high amounts of starch. This reduces the amount of beneficial compounds drastically.

Our mushrooms are highly concentrated (4:1 and 8:1) so you get more benefit from every scoop, and it tastes better! They are made of 100% fruiting body, which is where the active compounds are found, and we can guarantee the amount of mg of mushrooms and beta glucans in each scoop. They are water extracted, or dual extracted when necessary, to maintain the integrity of the polysaccharides.

IS DUAL EXTRACTION OF FUNCTIONAL MUSHROOMS USEFUL OR NECESSARY?

Sometimes people think that you have to “dual extract” all mushrooms with not only water but also alcohol, believing this will produce a full “spectrum” extract. In fact, some mushrooms are purposefully extracted with only water, which ensures the polysaccharides that can be damaged during alcohol extraction stay intact.

Our herbs, superfoods and nootropics are organic, non GMO, and locally sourced.
We support local women owned farmers and companies in Oregon first and foremost.

IS THE PACKAGING SUSTAINABLE?

We make every effort to keep our packaging 100% sustainable. We are currently using recycled boxes and biodegradable fibers in our packaging. We use high quality glass jars for our product, which can easily become damaged in shipping. We support and love our planet and are making choices daily to support it within the means of a start up company.

IS THERE SUGAR IN IT?

No, there is zero added sugar. SuperCube Matcha has a monk fruit sweetener blend for flavor balance.

DOES IT CONTAIN CAFFEINE?

SuperCube OG does not have any caffeine, it is meant to be added to your coffee or caffeinated beverage. SuperCube Chai and Matcha do have caffeine and can be enjoyed on their own, with about 30% of the caffeine of coffee.

CAN I DRINK IT WHILE PREGNANT?

Like any supplement, you will want to check in with your primary care provider or midwife to determine what works best for you. Bring the full ingredient list to that conversation, and hold off on starting anything new during pregnancy until your care team has cleared it.
