Good morning - after some time, my husband goes well on Barlowes brown Macuna. He's never tried pharmaceuticals. We tried the pure Macuna extract Powder, even with the ‘cabadopa’ of using green tea extract, quercetin, & 5HTP, but it caused severe vomiting.

So he takes 2 capsules [650 mg of Macuna @ 40% = 260 mg of levodopa]. He was unable to handle the Barlowes brown Macuna powder either (same severe vomiting), so we ordered gel caps + the capsule maker, since we had this bag of Barlowes brown Macuna powder.

He takes 2 capsules, equally 520 mg, along with green tea extract & 5HTP - 3x a day

We also follow the high dosage Thiamine : 4,000 mg a day, divided up to around breakfast + lunch, along with 1 magnesium L-theronate [purchased Life Extension Neuro-Mag ] + Liposomal B-12 NOW brand. Search for Roy Prop, who has tons on info on this. Thank you, Roy, for your help in this!

Others have suggested quercetin, which he takes for allergies anyway, Vit C, Omega 3, and a good probiotic (gut-brain connection)
