Ingredients & FAQ
Every Earth Co coffee starts with real coffee and adds one functional ingredient with a job to do. Here's what each one is, what it supports, and which blend to reach for — with deeper reads from our journal and answers to the questions we hear most.
Pick your blend by what you need
⚡ Maca
Supports natural, steady energy and stamina — without the jittery crash.
Maca is a root vegetable from the Peruvian Andes, traditionally used as a food and known as an adaptogen.

🍄 Functional Mushrooms
Support focus and a balanced response to everyday stress.
A blend of seven functional mushrooms — Lion's Mane, Reishi, Cordyceps, Chaga, Maitake, Shiitake and Turkey Tail — all adaptogens that help the body adapt to stress.
✨ Collagen & Biotin
Support healthy skin, hair and nails as part of your daily routine.
Collagen is the protein that gives skin, hair and nails their structure; biotin is a B-vitamin.
🌱 Prebiotic Fiber
Feeds your good gut bacteria to support digestive comfort.
Prebiotic fiber (inulin) is a plant fiber that acts as food for the beneficial bacteria in your gut.
🦠 Postbiotics
Support a balanced, comfortable gut — the “output” of a healthy microbiome.
Postbiotics are the beneficial compounds your good gut bacteria produce when they digest fiber.
🎯 MCT + Turmeric
Support steady focus and clean, everyday energy.
MCTs are fats your body turns into quick fuel; turmeric provides curcumin, a plant compound. Includes B vitamins.
💪 Protein
Supports muscle recovery and helps you feel full — 10 g of protein per cup, zero sugar.
Protein is the macronutrient that builds and repairs muscle.
Frequently asked questions
Do Earth Co coffees have caffeine?
Yes — every blend starts with real coffee, so you get the caffeine of a normal cup. The added functional ingredient rides along with your usual morning coffee; it doesn't replace it.
What's the difference between ground, instant, and pods?
Ground brews like any coffee (drip, French press, pour-over). Freeze-dried instant dissolves in hot or cold water in seconds. Pods are Keurig®-compatible for one-touch brewing. Same functional benefits — just pick how you like to make it. More: ground vs. freeze-dried coffee.
How do I prepare it?
Brew the ground coffee as you normally would. For instant, stir one scoop into hot or cold water or milk. For pods, drop one into your Keurig® and brew.
Is it vegan? Any allergens?
The Maca, Mushroom, Prebiotic & Postbiotic and MCT + Turmeric blends are plant-based. The Beauty (collagen) and Protein (whey) blends come from animal/dairy sources, so they aren't vegan. Full ingredient and allergen details are on each product page.
Will it break my intermittent fast?
The plain black options are very low calorie, so most people keep them during a fast. The Protein and Beauty blends contain calories, so they would technically break a fast. When in doubt, go black.
When will I notice a difference?
Energy and focus blends are often felt the same morning. Support for areas like gut, skin and hair tends to build with consistent daily use — think of it as a daily ritual, not a one-time fix.
