and btw I'm thinking that the reason fava helps is because it can ferry the levadopa cross the BBB....I tried a place in Canada but heard that they have problems sending seeds thru the mail. Is there anyone in the US with the three fold white? Thanks!

I don't know about the name "three fold white" by my favas look like that and I ordered them from Jaffe Bros.----do NOT buy the 25lb bag like we did, that was a ton of seeds we could not possibly plant at one time and the mice got into them (they probably had a great time, though!)
They are pretty hardy and have white flowers with multiple folds. They make a lovely bean, which is what we eat, we haven't tried the tincture yet, but the bean definitely has a "lovey" feeling, in addition to moving smoother. I have no idea why or how this works, just know that on days we can eat a bowl of beans, INCLUDING THE PODS, we can cut the sinemet down quite a bit, as well as mirapex which we have tired to get off of many times. Just fyi.
