Mucuna has a caramel like taste, can be used in smoothies and beverages and is a great source of L-DOPA.
Also known as Velvet Beans, our Mucuna Pruriens are grown in India, where the plant thrives in sunny, humid environments and where communities in the area have looked after it for generations. The seeds of the plant have been used as an aphrodisiac and an inducement to lucid dreaming in Ayurveda for thousands of years. In extract form, the amino acid L-DOPA, (a precursor to dopamine) is bioavailable and easy to incorporate into beverages.
