Tryguy,

What are you trying to achieve?

You mention "looking to eliminate the C/L and go straight Carbidopa + Mucuna only", but mucuna contains levodopa.
Sinemet ~ C/L ~ levodopa + carbidopa ~ mucuna + carbidopa
(I am not claiming dose equivalence in the above "approximations".)

As I see it, reasons for looking at mucuna are:
- there may be other active ingredients in mucuna not found in C/L which help you;
- the longterm taking of carbidopa is claimed by some people to be harmful, and mucuna offers a route to get levodopa without carbidopa;
- mucuna offers an alternative source of levodopa, which is handy in the event of any supply problems;
- using mucuna to help understand the effect of different drug regimens on you, in the hope that you can fine tune them;
- pure intellectual curiosity.

It would be nice to have separate and divisible sources of:
- levodopa;
- carbidopa;
- entacapone.
If these were readily available, you could "walk the state space", and find what is optimal for you.
