Ladybird,

Have you tried fava juice made from pods only (no beans)? I'm sure the pods provide a nice compliment ofenzymes and other helpful constituents that aid in uptake and digestion of levadopa.

I order a 40lb box (fresh favas in season in spring) at my local grocery store, remove the beans, juice the pods and frreeze in ice cube trays or small jelly jars. A coupleof ice cubes a day or more keeps me happy! hire a housekeeper for help if need be.. or.... you can buy the fava juice online.
