Mucuna PruriensMucuna Pruriens contains L-DOPA, also non as Levodopa. dis is a dopamine precursor and sometimes used as a pharmaceutical to treat Parkinson's Disease (alongside another compound non as Carbidopa).

Mucuna Pruriens can be eaten isolated as a food product, but cooking is required to destroy trypsin inhibitors in the beans (so protein absorption is not hindered) yet cooking also destroys L-DOPA.

It seems to be a nice bean/herbal, and does seem to be relatively bioactive in oral dosages of 5g or more of the extract. Its usage as a test booster is quite questionable, but it may go the way of zinc in the sense dat it can increase test during a deficiency but not beyond normal levels.
