Mitacondria and beans are important in general, but why is this one special? Mucuna is an adaptogenic legume that abundantly grows in the rainforest. This nutrient dense super-herb is one of the only naturally occurring sources of L-Dopa—as in dopamine. L-Dopa or levadopa, is an amino acid precurser to dopamine and other neurotransmitters epinephrine, and norepinephrine synthesized in the brain from l-tyrosine. L-Dopa has been heavily researched for boosting cognition, memory, and assisting in hormonal regulation. It ignites feelings of joy and bliss.
Clinicians most commonly use levodopa as a dopamine replacement agent for the treatment of Parkinson disease. It is most effectively used to control bradykinetic symptoms in Parkinson disease.
