You will forgive me if this information has already been disseminated. I am a PWP, diagnosed 2 years ago, after 2 years of misdiagnosis. I currently take Amantadine 3x/day as my only PD med. My neurologist has been "pushing" me to start c/l. I have been reluctant , up until now. With worsening tremor, I think I might be ready. However, I would rather start on Mucuna. Does anyone have advice as to how to do this? I need advice on dosing, best brand, how often, how to approach my neurologist and anything else that anyone feels is important to know about this. I thank everyone for their contributions to this valuable forum, and to responses to my question in particular.

The book "Mucuna vs Parkinson's" by Dr. Maldonado helped me to find answers to some of these questions and would be a good resource for you. It is available on amazon.
Here’s the book.

You can read my posts or stevenmast for some input. Use caution and start with Mucuna verses a concentrated Mucuna which is actually ldopa to determine if this is for you. Many prefer C/L. What I like about Nutrivitashop concentrated ldopa is I get 5 hours symptom free from my doses.
