Mucuna pruriens is a drug that is known for a variety of health benefits. Pruriens is extracted from a tropical legume which is known as ‘velvet bean’. In Mucuna pruriens, we have levodopa which is otherwise known as L-dopa, a compound that has various properties that benefit some human systems including the hormonal and nerve system. This is because the compound is biochemically active as it exists as a precursor to neurotransmitters, including adrenaline, noradrenaline, and dopamine. When the levodopa compound gets into the brain, it boosts levels of dopamine. Dopamine is essential in neurotransmission that is associated with mood determination and cognition.
As an antioxidant, it is helpful in the protection against oxidative destruction caused by free radicals. Free radicals that are unpaired in the body are unstable. Its antioxidant nature is what allows mucuna pruriens to be able to donate a free electron to a radical to reduce its effects which are particularly in the brain. The oxidation process has adverse effects on the brain and could lead to brain function depletion eventually.
The fact that mucuna pruriens activates the antioxidation system in the body means that it can maintain the body’s homeostasis. Homeostasis is the mechanism through which the body can maintain its internal conditions of balance or the internal environment even if there are external changes. Research has also shown that mucuna can relieve stress and is also sought out as an anti-depressant.
The Ayurvedic tradition employs the use mucuna pruriens to improve mental health and reduce stress. With the effects that mucuna pruriens has, there is a high probability that this could be used in therapy for Parkinson’s disease. Mucuna pruriens can also improve sexual function, this is through boosting libido, increasing testosterone levels and increasing sperm count.

Dosage: The best dosage for mucuna 50% is under a gram. The amount of dosage varies from low to the high end of a gram depending on everyone’s sensitivity to the drug. It is suggested that one starts with a hundred milligrams. During this process, it is important that one notes the effects as they increase the dosage this will enable them to gauge the right dosage for them. Five hundred grams is the amount that most people feel that the drug is performing optimally. This is what would be termed as the median dose. Smaller doses are easier to tolerate compared to larger ones, so it is important that one does not overdose his system with more levodopa than it can tolerate. Above the recommended dosage adverse effects might set in and the drug would not have optimal benefits. For one not to develop tolerance to mucuna pruriens, the drug should not frequently be used. The problem with increased tolerance is that once it sets in, then the person using the drug starts to increase the dosage fast.
