Hi I have been using mucuna pruriens as a supplement with sinemet since January 2010. Been taking one 350 mg capsule with each dose of sinemt (I
take l50 mg 3x daily). I have had Parkinson's for 11 years and I have tried
to use as little medicine as possible. However I was getting worse in January
since the medicine was wearing off after 3 hours. So mucuna has helped ex-
tend time half hour. I also took 40 hyperbaric oxygen treatments which I believe helped a lot. On June 1st I cut back Sinemet a half a tablet for AM
dose and at noon. My body has adjusted well altho I have slow times and
have to tell myself to pick up my feet and stand up straight. My question is how slowly do i proceed and what else should I be doing? I do take a "green"
multivitamin drink several times a week and use fish oil as well.
