Messed up oral biome
(pocketing) Also, I noticed when I am trying to eat but am also wearing off my drug, it’s even more difficult because it seems that my saliva could be affected by the level of
levodopa
. (and of course the mouth muscle is not working as well when I am wearing off).

A few questions about how the B1 Therapy is currently administered, and an idea on how to improve results.
First question I'm wondering about is those of you who have been experimenting with B1, what methodology have you been using to try to find the correct dosage? Also, what method does Dr. Constantini recommend for determining the individual dosage amount needed for each person? A thought I had was if

B1 Tyamine - how much to start?
I am also taking Carbidopa/
levodopa
25/100 the times a day. I also take a small amount of L-dopa (1/8 tsp) from NutriVita. I was wondering, how much B1 should I start taking? Don’t want to OD on too many things. I was diagnosed in April.

Change to Carbidopa Levodopa CR, dykinesia, neck dystonia
I recently saw my Neuro and had my prescription changed from C-L to an equivalent dosage combination of C-L and C-L CR (sustained release) to reduce off time. I went from three times 1-1/2 25/100 C-L pills per day to a regimen of one 25/100 C-L plus three 50/200 C-L CR pills per day. A presciption of

Mucuna pruriens in Parkinson’s
We have assessed the clinical effects and
levodopa
(L-dopa) pharmacokinetics following two different doses of mucuna preparation and compared them with standard L-dopa/carbidopa (LD/CD).

Does L-Tyrosine also cause augmentation
I have recently come off an OTC L-Dopa supplement because it was causing augmentation. I'm trying to get my dopamine levels to restore naturally and am wondering whether I should take L-Tyrosine (which is the amino acid building block for L-Dopa, found in eggs, cheese, meat, etc). I would be doing so

How long do L-dopa withdrawal symptoms last?
I took an over the counter L-dopa supplement (Macuna puriens) for a few months for my restless legs and then experienced augmentation and rebound. I stopped cold turkey a week ago and am experiencing withdrawal effects in the form of nervous system pain. Wondering how long it takes for the withdrawal

Bacteria Eating Levodopa- Are you using a PPI?
Myself, I have very limited benefits from
levodopa
and important side effects (dystonia and generalized relentlessness) which disappear when I am off
Levodopa
. A while back, my limited benefits dropped suddently, especially exercise capacity.

Do other dopamine boosters also cause augmentation?
I’m experiencing really bad RLS augmentation from supplementing with L-Dopa for three months, but wondering if I switch to other dopamine boosters such as Chlonine, Uridine, L-theanine, will the effect be the same? For context, this is what they specifically do: https://www.mindlabpro.com/blogs/nootropics

Optimizing levodopa
You should try a more natural source of
levodopa
: mucuna pruriens is a seed that comes as powder or in capsules. I take 6 g 3 times a day, mixed in with apple or orange juice (no dairy product s). At first it helps to take -1 capsule of green tea extract in the AM.

Approximating the pharmacokinetics of Rytary using four doses of IR C/L
To approximate the pharmacokinetics of a 390 mg dose of Rytary: Dose 1: 100 mg IR C/L, 0 hours Dose 2: 60 mg IR C/L, 1.5 hours Dose 3: 60 mg IR C/L, 3 hours Dose 4: 60 mg IR C/L, 4.5 hours IR C/L means immediate release cabidopa/
levodopa
(e.g. Sinemet).

It does say you may need to reduce your
levodopa
so he started using Mucuna along with Sinemet 25/250 and at first we were seeing good results. We are abroad at the moment and so more active than usual. The past few days have been a nightmare for me.

Are you supposed to take your B-1 supplement at the exact time you take your carbidopa/levodopa
I have been taking B1 and carbidopa/
Levodopa
at the exact same time, twice a day, before breakfast and then before lunch. Would I get better results if I didn't take them at the same time?
