I am wondering about Mucuna.

Which form is the most effective?

Pill or powder?

I first purchased Atremo Plus, mucuna powder that contained Vitamin E

My second purchase was Organic Cadane Mucuna powder , with no Vit E.

Does Mucuna need Vit E to work?

I have also just read about DopaBoost with Mucuna and other ingredients.

What is the best form?

Which brand/source do you use?

Thank you for your help and suggestions

Taking 1/2 teaspoon a day in non dairy yogurt.

The Organic Cadane Mucuna is an excellent choice. It is not a concentrate or extract so it will not cause nausea. Requires a tablespoon or two to make a dose. Vitamin E not required.

Âtremor and mucuna both work well for me. I use one tea spoon Mucuna plus 1/4 macha tea Every 4 hours. Mucuna 10 to 15% levedopa is purchased at www,organic tradition.com in Canada.

My husband hasn't been clinically diagnosed but we went to a neurologist, who said probably PD come back in a year. (Now that I have done my own research I am disappointed in her attitude, she could have suggested so much more.) I found AtremoPlus through HU, but now trying Cadane Mucuna Puriens powder - larger bag and organic. Also through all the wonderful response I have received on HU I am going to add the macha tea. His symptoms are tremors, acting out dreams and high thigh leg cramps. His tremors are now less, I am addressing rem sleep with other items. I need to thank Alan Alda - due to his podcast I became aware of the PD symptom of acting out dreams. I knew something was going on but didn't know what. Also, after watching a video on HU - I have become very aware how important REM sleep is. PLUS through HU I have made a few contacts and everyone has been wonderful and supportive. This is a GREAT GROUP and very helpful webpage/community. THANK YOU EVERYONE
