Mucuna Pruriens (4oz/114g) - Powder Extract from Velvet Beans

I researched and decided to go with this product first to help with perimenopause and ADHD. So this morning I ate my usual low carb high protein breakfast and warmed about 4 oz of bottled water mixed it with a scoop. Took about 30-45 mins into my morning routine when I felt the effects. Peak lasted for about an hour and a half but settling. I drink tea & coffee so the taste was good. It blended well, left no sticky residue. It lifted my mood & tackling my responsibilities this morning were super focused. I am juggling alot right now so this helped me get through and tackle the more stressful responsibilities without frustration and feeling drained. It's quality is definitely worth the price because you won't have to use it alot since it works so well. Great buy! So far no effect on stomach since I'm eating prior to taking. It's water soluble and that works best for me.

i have a family member recently diagnosed with parkinsons, and i have been taking care of them with this instead of the synthetic levodopa / carbadopa which has so many bad side effects.. he decided this is worth a try.. so far so good, and feel it is helping, if you are going to use this to help with parkinsons symptoms, it helps if you follow the recommended protocol, with 5 http, nac L cysteine, R Alpha lipoic acid, and L tyrosine and L tryptophan.. together along with green tea extract or L thianine to help with crossing blood brain barrier.. I have also added an organic Sulphur msm which also helps dopamine cross blood brain barrier.the treatment also includes higher doses of vitamin c, and multivitamins along with the best supplements, b complex, and b12 methycobalamin, b6, selenium,liquid vit d3 and a very good quality organic fish , krill oil and cod liver oil...it is quite a project but after a few months you can figure out how much to give as each person is very different..he says it helps him.. and i noticed when he does not get it as for a few days, he starts having problems moving g and walking, we tried going off of it, as it is recommended to us be on it for a few weeks and off for a few to try to retrain the brain to make dopamine again..but for him, he was just better taking it maybe later at some point he can try it without it, we did reduce it to once daily a higher dose like 3/4 tsp.. between 1/2 and 3/4 tsp.. of mucuna..it is very hard to know what brand is the real truest form for this.. you just have to try out which one works...using magnesium citrate bulk powder with high dose vitamin c bulk powder and calcium bone meal form as well which seems to reduce tremors the mucuna bulk powder here along with the L dopamine I purchase on Amazon that is a 40 percent has helped him now walk without a cane.nothing is known to get rid of tremors but we notice the magnesium citrate with vitamin c and bone meal calcium helps alot.it will also help with constipation which a lot of Parkinson patients have.

As far as quality, this Mucuna powder is effective. It gives me a mood and libido boost that's instantly noticed. I found this mixes better in hot water than cold water. The cold water doesn't dissolve it and it clumps and sticks to the side of the shaker or glass. This bag only lasted me two weeks and I was only taking it twice a day which is less than the recommended amount for Mucuna. Unless you've got a large trust fund, expect to buy about 3 bags for a month supply. I'm going to search for another Mucuna powder where you get at least a months worth after taking 1-3 times a day. It's unfortunate because this powder is effective, but overpriced and you only get a stingy amount.

This extract is the highest quality in my opinion. It dissolves very easily and completely in boiling water. Very pleasant to taste and most importantly - very effective. All that is said about Mucuna is true and I have observed it in myself after taking this product from Samsara. I tried Mucuna extract from another manufacturer and threw up several times, but Samsara's extract is just great!

Mucuna extract powder helps me treat some symptoms of narcolepsy- I have found with regular use, my nervous system can maintain more consistent wakefulness and the regular sleep attacks are not as powerful. Four Stars! until I figure out how much how often and best way to take it. Product changed between first and second orders. Was smooth texture with mild taste. Now more potent but gritty and bitter.

I started using mucuna about three months ago, and what a change. Most people don't understand that people with ADHD get a little "bonus" in the way of emotional disregulation. Dopamine to the rescue. I used 200 MG in capsules daily on an empty stomach along with L-tyrosine. After eating, i took zinc, super B complex, and high quality fish oil. Wow, i feel better. I take a weekend break from the mucuna as it can become less effective if you don't. That first weekend, I felt like cr@p on Sunday. Better the next weekend and now the break doesn't bother me. Warning, I accidentally had it with my breakfast and felt no benefit. BTW, the feeling is you just feel OK, just normal. Ve just switched to this powder. I've just increased my dosage as I still experience some emotional dysregulation. I thank God for this.
