Somewhere along the line, it might be worthwhile testing the addition of grapefruit juice to the mix and see if it benefits from the inhibition of the enzymes.

Another possibility would be the addition of ginger. It is having an impressive effect for me. If you want to prove it to yourself, take a dose along with sinemet. Prepare for dose-dependent dyskinesias! Then taper back.
