3.0 out of 5 stars OK, but not enteric-coated. I recommend Solaray brand instead, March 12, 2007

This review is from: Mucuna Pruriens 200mg, 60 Vcaps (Health and Beauty)

This Mucuna supplement definitely works, however, it comes in non-enteric-coated capsules. Therefore it should to be taken on an empty stomach and you should avoid eating too much protein for several hours before and after because protein digestive enzymes can affect the uptake and breakdown L-Dopa. That means the effective dose is lower and you need up to 3 per day.

While this brand works fine, I recommend the "DopaBean" brand sold by solaray instead. It comes in enteric-coated capsules and you get a better effective dose by only taking 1 or 2 per day instead of 3 and you don't have to worry as much about about when or what you ate last.
