Herbal supplements containing standardized dosages of L-DOPA are available without a prescription. These supplements have recently increased in both availability and popularity in the United States and on the internet. The most common plant source of L-DOPA marketed in this manner is a tropical legume, Mucuna pruriens, also known as “Velvet Bean” and by a number of other common names. The most popular brand of Mucuna pruriens is “L-Dopa,” marketed by Unique Nutrition. L-dopa , drug used to alleviate some of the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease , particularly trembling, rigidity, and slow movements; the drug is also called levodopa. Parkinson’s disease results when the concentration of dopamine in the brain is depleted. How does this aid the athletes? Some studies has shown the the administration of L-dopa increased libido and aid in body-building by increasing human growth hormone. I can not attest to the increase in human growth hormone as I have not had levels tested, but I have noticed steady gains in lean mass in the athletes using L-dopa. Doing rehab work on my clients who have impaired movement as a result of having a stroke, I have found that L-dopa improved motor control, giving the clients better control. I think this product is well worth a try, especially if you have, or are a high risk candidate, for Parkinson’s Decease or stroke.
