Why Should You Take Miracle Morning?:

Let’s be honest. There are a lot of overhyped supplements on the market that promise to help you live forever, even if you do not have great lifestyle habits.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

If you plan to take Miracle Morning without eating healthy food or getting off the couch, you might as well save your money.

Although Miracle Morning can still give you a kick in the rear, supplements are meant to support your already healthy lifestyle and are not meant to be a replacement for proper nutrition, sleep, or exercise. 

How many people have you seen at the gym taking branched chain amino acids (BCAAs)? 

Even though there is little evidence to support their ability to help you gain muscle, they have become one of the most popular exercise supplements on the market. 

How Does Miracle Morning Work?:

how does miracle morning work?

Miracle Morning is a cognitive support supplement.

Miracle Morning only includes ingredients that support your body’s natural energy levels and it does not cause side effects like many energy drinks or pre-workouts.

Miracle Morning is intended to supercharge your energy levels in order to allow for a nice clean, calm, and focused feeling, resulting in increased drive and productivity throughout the entire day. 

  • Alleviate Common Deficiencies. Miracle Morning is strategically formulated with key vitamins that many people are deficient in. By correcting these deficiencies and keeping the body's stores topped off, you consistently give the body what it needs to optimize its energy levels.
  • Increased Energy. The caffeine + guarana along with the B-vitamins found in Miracle Morning allow your body radically fight fatigue allowing you to attack your day every single day. 
  • Improved Performance. By alleviating common micronutrient deficiencies, fighting off fatigue, and improving your body's ability to be resilient to whatever the day throws at it allows for your performance to reach heights that you never imagined it would. 

Miracle Morning is not a magic pill, although many people will argue that it is. The amount of time that it takes for Miracle Morning to work for people is based on the individual.

Depending on the current state of health that you are in, the amount of stress that you have, the amount of sleep that you get, how sensitive you are to the ingredients, and how healthy your diet is, Miracle Morning can begin to work almost immediately for some, and for others it can take anywhere from 20-60 minutes before the full effect of the supplement is felt

You may be able to get many of the ingredients that we have included in Miracle Morning through food. However, taking a supplement helps you get the exact correct doses.

It is much easier to take one capsule a day than it is to try and eat the foods containing all of the ingredients in this awesome formula.

Here is what each daily dose (one capsule) of Miracle Morning provides you with.

Caffeine (150 mg)

caffeine

Caffeine was discovered by Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge when he isolated and purified the white crystalline substance in 1819.

Caffeine is a molecule that antagonizes the adenosine receptor in the brain. Adenosine is the molecule that builds up during the day leading to drowsiness at night. The antagonism (or opposite action) of this receptor is what leads to the energetic and wakefulness feeling that results from caffeine consumption. 

Caffeine, along with its energetic boost, has various benefits, such as the ability to improve physical performance, training volume, higher testosterone levels, increases oxygen uptake, and is even correlated with an increase in lifespan. 

Some of the best sources of caffeine are going to be coffee, followed by various types of teas. 

When supplementing with caffeine, it is safest to stay under the 500 mg mark in order to mitigate the possible rise in stress hormones and anxiousness.

Coffee and the caffeine consumption from coffee has actually become a contested topic over recent years in health circles. Some people say it is healthy, some people claim that it is not healthy. But as always, let's look at the research and see what the research actually says. Let's take a look.

Hormonal health is the key to longevity and vitality, especially from a young age until you are late in life. If you can achieve a good hormonal balance, you are going to be healthy all the way through. Focusing on hormonal health is the high leverage way to optimize your health in general. Whether it is your energy, circulation, gut health, brain health, or sexual health, everything falls under the realm of your endocrine system. By optimizing your hormones, you are going to be able to, in a high leverage way, focus on bringing your whole body as a system into whole health.

Caffeine has been linked in a dose dependent manner to an increase in cortisol elevation. A lot of people cite that as something that is unhealthy for the body. Obviously if you have chronically high cortisol levels, that is considered unhealthy, especially because it suppresses reproductive hormones and androgens. 

There is a threshold when you drink an acute amount of coffee. For example, if you drink two cups of coffee, some people might have eight cups of coffee because it all depends on your own chemistry. But usually when you cross that stress threshold, your body starts to have a stress response from the caffeine. You can experience a tingle in your body, and you become really wired and then really tired. It is a symptom of excess cortisol, the excess fight or flight response. 

When people consume caffeine under that threshold, there are some really cool benefits to it. Specifically, my favorite way to use caffeine is before working out. 

One study demonstrated that caffeine before a workout was able to increase anaerobic training capacity and muscular endurance significantly in the workout.

Another study showed a significant increase in muscular strength on both bench press and leg press from pre-workout caffeine consumption. 

Caffeine has also been shown in research to increase testosterone production in the body, which is due to the fact that it increases cyclic AMP. 

Caffeine has been shown in various studies to increase brain performance and cognitive capacity in moderate doses (anything less than or equal to 300 mg). By helping improve working memory and alertness, caffeine is a novel ingredient in any cognitive support supplement.

Teacrine (128 mg)

teacrine

Teacrine is an alkaloid similar to caffeine, and while there is not much evidence on the official discovery of teacrine, it is here nonetheless. 

Teacrine works synergistically with caffeine to enhance cognitive and physical performance, without building a dependency on the molecule. 

This powerful, natural, energy-boosting compound will start your day off with a huge increase in focus and energy that lasts for 6 steady hours. 

Human clinical trials performed at the University of Memphis and University of Tennessee demonstrate the main ingredient in Miracle Morning, when combined with caffeine, as "delivering a mental and performance edge without the crash or jitters associated with caffeine alone."

Some sources even say it is a derivative of caffeine made within the plant (kucha). Studies even suggest that whenever supplementing with teacrine and caffeine, the bioavailability of teacrine is enhanced tremendously, increasing the potency. 

When looking to supplement with teacrine, the most studied doses are around the 100-300 mg range to be the most effective. †

L-Theanine (100 mg)

l-theanine

L-theanine is a non-essential amino acid that is found in tea leaves — particularly black tea and green tea — as well as in Bay Bolete mushrooms. It is considered "non-essential" because, despite its benefits to the mind and body, L-theanine is not needed.

L-theanine can also be obtained through supplement form in addition to food products.

This amino acid affects nerve impulses in the brain and releases neurotransmitters to induce a sense of sedation because it is a natural anxiolytic.

Studies suggest¹ that L-theanine can help promote a sense of relaxation without causing drowsiness. In fact, the biggest reason why people take L-theanine is to help alleviate stress and achieve a state of tranquility.

Benefits of L-Theanine

L-theanine offers a variety of health benefits, including the following.

Alleviates Stress and Anxiety

Perhaps the biggest and most-well known perk of taking this amino acid is its ability to promote relaxation. Its sedative properties help to put a person at ease and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.

The great thing about using L-theanine for anxiety is that it is able to increase relaxation without actually making the person feel overly tired. As such, it should not impact a person's ability to continue with regular daily activities.

That said, L-theanine may not be as effective for those who suffer from severe anxiety.

Increases Focus and Attention

While L-theanine may help to relax a person, it can also help to boost attention and mental clarity when taken alongside caffeine. When taken together, both L-theanine and caffeine can improve a person's level of cognition and attention without causing the "jitters."

One study² showed that taking L-theanine and caffeine together helped study participants experience better focus while performing demanding tasks.

To achieve the best effect, proper dosing is required. In this case, taking anywhere between 100-200mg of both L-theanine and caffeine offers the best results.

May Improve Memory

In addition to boosting mental clarity, L-theanine may also be effective in helping to improve long-term memory. One study³ found that patients who suffered from mild cognitive impairment experienced an improvement in recognition skills after taking 60 mg of L-theanine along with green tea extract three times a day for 16 weeks.

Researchers suggest that L-theanine's role in cognitive repair and memory improvement³ is through the prevention of excessive glutamate stimulation of cells in the brain, which may be associated with neurodegenerative disorders and schizophrenia. Blocking glutamate effects may help L-theanine protect the brain, especially as a person ages.

Promotes Better Sleep

Since L-theanine is able to induce a sense of relaxation, it only makes sense that it would be able to promote better sleep. The amino acid is also able to reduce resting heart rate, which also helps to relax a person and create the ideal environment in which to fall and stay asleep.

One study4 assessed the effects of L-theanine on a group of children and found that the group that took L-theanine was able to experience longer periods of quality sleep compared to the group that took a placebo. L-theanine may also help to improve quality of sleep in those who suffer from hyperactivity such as ADHD.

May Help Regulate Blood Pressure

L-theanine may be helpful for those who experience an elevation in blood pressure after particularly stressful situations. One study found that L-theanine was able to control higher blood pressure5 after specific stressful mental tasks.

May Help Boost Immunity

Studies suggest that L-theanine may help the body ward off common ailments thanks to a strengthened immune system6. Further, its anti-inflammatory properties may also play a role in combating illness.

How to Use L-Theanine

L-theanine is most effective when taken in supplement form and can be easily consumed through tablets or capsules.

Recommended Dosage

There are not currently any official guidelines in terms of the amount of L-theanine that can be safely taken. That said, 200mg per day is said to be a safe yet effective amount. In fact, many supplements already come with a dosage of 200 mg per tablet. It is important to follow the directions of manufacturers when dosing L-theanine and speak with a physician first.

Supplementing With L-Theanine

According to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), L-theanine is classified as generally safe. However, there may be certain side effects associated with consuming too much of the amino acid, especially when combined with too many caffeinated beverages:

  • Nausea
  • Stomach upset
  • Irritability
  • Interactions with cancer-treating drugs

Further, women who are pregnant or nursing should not use L-theanine, or at least significantly limit the amount of black or green tea they drink. As always, it is best to consult with a physician before taking supplements like L-theanine.

Symptoms of L-Theanine Deficiency

While there are no direct symptoms of a deficiency of L-theanine, there are deficiency symptoms in those who are low in GABA, or Gamma-aminobutyric acid, the brain’s main inhibitory neurotransmitter that prevents overstimulation and promotes a sense of calm.

Supplementing with L-theanine, among other substances, may help alleviate GABA deficiency symptoms7 by boosting GABA function.

Those who are deficient in GABA may experience the following symptoms:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Panic disorders
  • Drug and alcohol dependence

Is L-Theanine Healthy?

Those who suffer from insomnia, stress, and anxiety may find supplementing with L-theanine helpful. This amino acid has been shown to help promote a sense of relaxation and can even help to improve mental clarity and focus. Be sure to talk to your healthcare provider regarding supplementing with L-theanine and ensure adequate dosage to achieve the desired effects without the side effects.†

Thiamine (50 mg)

thiamine

Thiamin, otherwise known as Vitamin B1, is an essential vitamin that is usually pretty dense in a relatively healthy diet. 

Thiamin was discovered in 1912 by a polish biochemist Casimir Funk by isolating this nutrient from the husk of rice. 

Thiamin is a necessary nutrient for the production of glucose within the body and is typically flushed out during times of high alcohol intake. It is deemed to be deficient in times of high blood glucose. 

Some of the benefits that have been associated with thiamin are significant decreases in pre-menstruation symptoms, decreases in blood pressure, and less harsh side effects from excess alcohol intake. 

Some of the best sources from food to get bioavailable and unreactive thiamin are pork, steak, orange juice, and mussels. 

When supplementing with extra thiamin you want to ensure that you are not exceeding 100-300 mg. Going a little high is not as dangerous as one might think, as thiamin is a water-soluble vitamin and can easily be passed from the system. However, if the dose is too large, it can cause problems so anything 300 mg or below is what can be taken safely.

Pyridoxine (10 mg)

pyridoxine

Pyridoxine, also known as Vitamin B6, is an essential vitamin that is used throughout the body. 

Pyridoxine was originally discovered in 1934 by Paul Gyorgy and was first synthesized in 1938 by Samuel Lepkovsky. 

Pyridoxine is a cofactor that is essential for many different chemical reactions to occur throughout the body. Without this nutrient, scientists have seen that in mammals it can cause convulsions and strange lesions on the skin. 

Pyridoxine and similar derivatives that are needed by the body can easily be found in a nutrient-rich diet. Some of the best sources of pyridoxine are eggs, milk, potatoes, pork, and some types of fish. 

As far as supplementation goes finding a good pyridoxine HCl form is best.

Guarana (50 mg)

guarana

Paullinia cupana, also known as guarana, is a fruit bearing tree.

The seeds are ground into powder and used in traditional Amazonian medicine.

Guaraná or 'uaraná' seeds is used for its psychostimulatory actions. Guarana powder is derived from the seeds and used in Amazonian medicine for its stimulant activity.

Guarana may have additional anticancer effects, but much more research is needed to confirm this effect. 

Guarana contains xanthines, like caffeine, catechins, tannins, and procyanidins.

Though guarana has a high caffeine content, the average guarana dose is low enough to prevent the caffeine from playing an active role.

To supplement guarana, take 50 – 75 mg once a day, before noon. 

Miracle Morning Recommended Daily Dose

Who Benefits the Most from Miracle Morning?:

benefits of miracle morning

We feel confident that anybody can benefit from an energy boosting supplement like Miracle Morning. However, there are certain groups of people who may particularly benefit from taking it.

Athletes

Athletes can benefit a great degree from using miracle morning. With the combination of caffeine, teacrine, and guarana, this supplement works as a great pre-workout. Taking Miracle Morning before physical exercise can improve focus, workout intensity, stamina, power output, and overall physical capacity. 

High Performing Professionals and College Students

Performing at a high level as a professional in any career can begin to take a toll on anyone. Energy levels begin to dip as work and stress begins to pile up. Supplementing with Miracle Morning (and Cortigon) will give you the mental clarity and energy that you need to take each and every day on with full force. 

Commonly Asked Questions about Miracle Morning:

commonly asked questions about miracle morning

Everybody is different, so sometimes what works for most people may not work as well for you.  

Particularly if you have a pre-existing medical condition, you may have some challenges when you add a potent supplement to your regimen.

If you are taking a prescription drug, we strongly recommend that you consult your prescribing medical professional before introducing a new supplement.  

We cannot tell you how a drug might interact with a supplement, as sometimes the drug or your underlying condition contraindicate the use of one or more ingredients in a supplement. It is important to consult your prescribing physician to make sure everything will work well together to support your health.

Another thing to consider is your overall sensitivity to foods and supplements, as well as your body weight.  If you know you are quite sensitive or you are petite, start out slowly with a lower dose and work up to our recommended serving size, paying attention to how you feel. Dial it back if you find that your body isn’t tolerating the ‘whole enchilada’ – maybe you’re happiest with half an enchilada.  

Know that efficacy is proven at the recommended serving size, but again, that is a general rule and you may still be able to experience the benefits with a lower dose!

Our Suggested Use instructions call for 1 capsule, 1 time per day with meals.  

This works very well for the vast majority of our customers. However, if you are one of the few who have the following concerns, you might try a lower dose and see how that goes, rather than jumping in at the full serving size.

Heart Problems

If you have a heart condition, stimulants can be an issue, we highly recommend consulting your doctor before using Miracle Morning.

Digestive Issues

On rare occasions, Miracle Morning can cause digestive issues for sensitive individuals.  Make sure to take Miracle Morning with a meal and this should be avoided.
