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 to alleviate them, including cutting out coffee, balancing blood sugar, adjusting exercise routines around her cycle, and eliminating specific foods. Despite these efforts, coffee remained a significant loss. However, out of this disappointment, a brilliant idea was born!
Determined to find a solution that would provide the same enjoyment as coffee without triggering migraines, 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 discovered a formula that not only kept her migraines at bay but also boosted her overall health. As a single mom managing two businesses in the wellness industry, Lara now experiences smoother periods, sustained energy levels, improved nervous system response, and better cognitive function during perimenopause, thanks to SuperCube's support.
Her journey is a testament to the transformative power of this unique blend of medicinal ingredients.
IS SUPERCUBE BACKED BY STUDIES OR SCIENCE?
Yes! SuperCube is rooted in science! It is not just a lifestyle product. It is a supplement meant for long term use for dep optimal healing. Physiology and pathology are the primary “science” behind the foundation of SuperCube. Also, the science of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the science of Functional Nutrition play a huge roll in the formulation of SuperCube.
While SuperCube itself has not been double blind placebo tested, all of its ingredients have!
WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE SUPERCUBE OVER OTHER COFFEE ADDITIVES
Ditch the dust! SuperCube isn't here to replace your coffee—it's here to enhance 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're 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 may not fully capitalize on coffee's perks!"
This version maintains the engaging and informative tone, emphasizing SuperCube's unique benefits compared to other coffee additives.
SUPERIOR QUALITY AND SOURCING
Our functional mushrooms are grown on wood as they would be in nature. Not grain or other substrates. The majority of commercial producers grow mushrooms on grains like rice, oats, or sorghum. Therefore, all that grain becomes inseparable from the mycelium and or fruiting body and remains in the final product, leading 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 long term use and it tastes better! They are made of 100% of the fruiting body which is were the active healing ingredients are found. And we can guarantee the amount of mg’s of mushrooms and beta glucans in each scoop! They are water extracted or dual 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. They think this will produce a full “spectrum” extract. When in fact, some are purposefully extracted with only water. This ensures the polysaccharides that damaged during the alcohol extraction for some muShrooms, 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 and it 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 monkfruit/stevia/erythritol 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. Our SuperCube Chai and Match do have caffeine and can be enjoyed on their own. They has about 30% of the caffeine of coffee.
CAN I DRINK IT WHILE PREGNANT?
Like any supplement you would need to check in with your primary care physician to determine what would work best for you. The ingredients in SuperCube OG and Chai are not contraindicated during pregnancy though, according to TCM.
