1. How does the L-dopa get to the brain without having peripheral metabolism in the body, like levodopa pills? 2. Can long term, heavy use, cause levodopa induced dyskinesia (LID) the same way levodopa can. |

seems like it should be roasted first to inactivate some enzymes. not sure about phytic acid, you'd have to eat a lot of mucana to get too much phytic acid imho. phytic acid is broken down by the enzyme phytase during germination, it is the storage form of phosphorus in the seed - so much lower in sprouts, leavened bread. |
