Mucuna - properly use

Please, how to properly use Mucuna seeds to help in the treatment of parkinson's, considering that I take 6 pills a day of prolopa?

I currently make cup of tea with 4 seeds of mucuna a day,

but I don't know if it is the most appropriate way.

And I don't know if doing more tea, it can cause a problem.

How do I know the right dose for my case?

Hi Fred,You will have to experiment and find what works for you. Not sure where you are in the world that you can get the whole beans. I use an organic ground powder form. I’ve found 3 brands in the USA that have worked for me. There are also capsules, that I haven’t tried as I take too large of a dose, I’d be swallowing many more pills than I could stand. I mix it with a little water, warm works best, or with homemade almond milk. This week I started adding matcha tea powder as I read about on this site. I’ve never had the beans to make a tea so don’t know anything about that. I would start small, however you do it and gradually increase your dose of whatever form you use, paying close attention to how you feel. For me, mucuna works the same as the carbo-levodopa drug I take, and I don’t have side-effects. Some people do though, such as nausea. Good luck!

thanks for answering.I live in Brazil. In Rio de Janeiro.

Mucuna (beans) is sold here, as well as in powder, or pots in the same way that vitamins are sold.

I'm testing the beans. Let's see what happens.
