Mucuna
Hi community, I just started on Mucuna extract 650 MG 40% L –Dopa from Barlow's herbal elixirs.. I have been taking one capsule twice a day for the past couple of days, it makes my head feel funny but have not gotten any relief from my tremors. Does it take a while before I begin to fill a positive effect

Suggestions
I will be receiving the Dopa Macuna 15% L-Dopa tomorrow. I want to begin taking it in an attempt to see if this alone will replace the Carbidopa that I currently take 2 times a day each measured at 25-100. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to take it? I currently take one Carbidopa at 7 AM and
