Ayurvedic treatment of Parkinson

Why Levodopa and Dopamine Medicines Should Be Avoided in Parkinson’s Disease: A Deeper Ayurvedic Perspective

❌ Krauncha seeds (Mucuna) contain L-Dopa but do not stop neuron degeneration. This can be a herbal claim- not ayurvedic.

❌ It follows the same temporary relief mechanism as synthetic Levodopa.

❌ No Ayurvedic text recommends Krauncha for Parkinson’s disease treatment.

❌ Patients experience the same “on-off” phenomenon and increased dosage needs.

Conclusion: Krauncha seed powder is just another form of Levodopa and not a solution for Parkinson’s disease.

Do you know anyone who has taken this "cure"? and have they improved?

I did not see any cure suggested here. All we have is advice telling us not to use levodopa, without any offer to come care for those who are non-functional as a result.

I didn't much care for the reasoning expressed either.
