Vitakruid Mucuna pruriens 400mg minimum 25% L-Dopa
Vitakruid Mucuna pruriens 400 mg (min. 25% L-Dopa)
Besides the quality of the extract, the dosage is also important. A higher dosage simply provides more active ingredients and therefore a greater effect. Most Mucuna pruriens supplements contain between 250 and 400 mg of extract per capsule. Research shows that these dosages are too low for a sufficient effect. Therefore, our Mucuna pruriens contains a whopping 500 mg of extract per capsule, and we recommend taking up to two capsules per day; a well-founded dosage!
L-Dopa is the direct precursor of dopamine, the neurotransmitter released when eating meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, avocados, nuts, seeds, and legumes. Furthermore, certain activities, such as sex or exercise, can increase dopamine activity.
Nevertheless, dopamine is one of the most vulnerable neurotransmitters; stress and lack of sleep are often culprits in disrupting its balance. Furthermore, alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, sugar, and various drugs cause a short-term surge in the neurotransmitter. On the other hand, dopamine activity decreases in the days following stimulant use, leading to insufficient levels. Therefore, supplementation with Mucuna pruriens can be beneficial in various situations.
The Ayurvedic legume has various uses
You may be familiar with ashwagandha or turmeric, two well-known Ayurvedic herbs that we already stock. However, Mucuna pruriens is a lesser-known product of traditional Indian medicine. This is a shame, because the purple pods have countless applications; introduced centuries ago by Indian philosophers and scientifically endorsed in recent decades.
High-quality extract of at least 25% l-dopa
The velvet bean contains between 3.1 and 6.7% l-dopa, making it the richest known source of levodopa. However, you have to eat a lot of the fruit to experience any effect from the l-dopa. Therefore, our Mucuna pruriens contains an extract containing high levels of the velvet bean's active ingredients.
However, not all Mucuna pruriens extracts are of high quality. A quick glance through the Mucuna pruriens offerings on the Dutch market reveals countless products with 5%, 10%, or 15% l-dopa extracts. The percentage indicates the actual percentage of the extract containing levodopa. For our Mucuna pruriens, we've chosen the highest-quality extract available, a whopping 25%!
High dosage of 400 mg per capsule
Besides the quality of the extract, the dosage is also important. A higher dosage simply provides more active ingredients and therefore a greater effect. Most Mucuna pruriens supplements contain between 250 and 400 mg of extract per capsule, with a low percentage of l-dopa. Research shows that these dosages are too low for a sufficient effect. Therefore, our Mucuna pruriens contains a whopping 400 mg of extract, with 25% l-dopa per capsule, and we recommend taking up to two capsules per day; a well-founded dosage!
