7 Reasons why busy women over 40 swear by spoonn for all afternoon energy

For years, the energy industry has treated women like an afterthought, repainting products built for young men and calling it new.

Spoonn decided that wasn’t good enough. So they created one of the first afternoon energy supports made only for busy women over 40.

The 7 points below answer every question you could possibly have - from our process to its safety.

Why would it work when nothing else does?

Spoonn infuses green tea’s natural caffeine and L‑theanine into honey over 72 hours.

That same caffeine and L‑theanine combination has been tested in over a dozen human trials showing it provides calm, steady focus and energy - without the jitters or crash.

In Spoonn, it’s carried in the honey so it releases steadily through your entire afternoon, then wears off smoothly before bed.

I’ve been failed by fixes before though

Magnesium, B12, adaptogens, iron — these can help if you’re deficient, but they don’t change the afternoon spike then crash pattern.

Spoonn was built to overcome that pattern entirely, giving you a steady stream of energy through the hours you would usually slump.

What am I actually taking?

100mg of natural green tea caffeine per spoonful — the same as a large coffee.

Every ingredient is named and dosed on the label: green tea extract, cacao, Celtic sea salt, British honey. Nothing hidden behind an “energy complex.”

I don't have time for another routine

One level spoon from the jar between 1–2pm, however you like it:

  • Off the spoon as a chocolatey treat
  • A chocolatey tea with hot water
  • Added to your coffee as a subtle sweetener, so you don’t have to give it up
I've already spent money on things that didn't work

Fair. The supplement aisle is full of promises with nothing behind them.

Spoonn uses ingredients with existing human research behind them, and each batch is made here in England under strict quality controls.

And if it doesn't work for you, you get a refund. No hassle at all.

How do I know it'll work for me?

We can't legally say it will - but we can say in the last 6 months less than 0.5% of women have asked for a refund on their jars of Spoonn.

And if nothing changes with your 2pm spoon within a few weeks, you get your money back. That risk is ours, not yours.

Does this actually work for someone like me?

If what you want is steadier afternoons — not a wired, on‑edge buzz — then Spoonn was built for you.

Below are a few of the women who use Spoonn every afternoon — some for the clarity at work, others just for not feeling flat by 3pm.

I was skeptical too
“I honestly thought feeling flat out every afternoon was just how it goes when you get older. It wasn’t until a dear friend told me about their 2pm spoonn that I realised I didn’t just have to accept feeling like a zombie at 3pm everyday.”

I just wanted to think clearly past 2pm
“It wasn't the tiredness that got to me, it was losing my words mid-sentence in meetings. Since adding a spoon at 1pm alongside my usual coffee, I can actually follow a conversation right through to 4pm. That alone changed how I felt at work.”

My kids noticed before I said anything.
“I’d get home from work and be ready to collapse onto the sofa before I started having my spoon. I didn’t realise how big of a deal it was until I finally stopped feeling the need to do so with spoonn.”

I worried it would be too much caffeine on top of my coffee.
“I still have my usual cups, I just added Spoonn at 2pm as well. It's done the opposite of what I expected — alongside my coffee, my afternoons are just steady now. No jitters, no racing heart, no crash later.”

I love my coffee too much to ever give it up.
“I wasn't looking to replace anything, I just added my spoon alongside it. Three months in and my afternoons have genuinely changed — I'm not fading by 3pm the way I used to, and I'm still drinking exactly the coffee I always have.”

Will it make me jittery?+
No, green tea has been studies for decades and has been proven to provide calm, sustained energy without the jitters or anxiety.
What is the best time of day to take Spoonn?+
Between 1 and 2pm is the ideal time. Ideally not afterwards as you don't want to take it too late and still feel the benefits when you are trying to sleep.
What are the ingredients in Spoonn?+
Just four: raw British honey, green tea extract, organic cacao and Celtic sea salt — nothing else. No fillers, no artificial sweeteners, no proprietary blends.
How much caffeine is in each spoon?+
Each 7g serving (one level teaspoon) contains 100mg of natural caffeine from green tea — less than a standard cup of coffee.
How is Spoonn made?+
We infuse raw British honey with green tea extract, organic cacao and Celtic sea salt in small batches. The honey acts as a natural carrier, helping the green tea's caffeine and l-theanine release more gradually rather than all at once.
How many spoons are in each jar?+
Each jar contains 28 daily spoons — a full month's supply at one teaspoon a day.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?+
Spoonn contains caffeine and is not recommended for children, or for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. As with any supplement, please check with your doctor before adding it to your routine.
Is there any dairy, gluten, or nuts?+
Spoonn is made from just honey, green tea extract, cacao and Celtic sea salt — there's no dairy, gluten or nuts in the recipe. If you have a specific allergy or intolerance, please check the full ingredient label before trying it.
Can I take Spoonn if I'm on medication?+
Because Spoonn contains caffeine, please check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're on any medication, particularly anything affecting your heart rate, blood pressure or sleep.
Is Spoonn safe to take every day?+
Yes — Spoonn is made with natural, food-grade ingredients and contains less caffeine than a standard cup of coffee. It's designed to be part of your daily 1pm routine.
What if I don't feel a difference?+
We offer a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee for exactly this reason. Try it risk-free, and if you don't notice an improvement, just email us for a full refund.
How do I cancel or pause my subscription?+
Your subscription is fully flexible — pause, skip a delivery, or cancel any time through your online account portal. No phone calls, no hoops to jump through.
