How Does M. Pruriens Work?

Most notably, M. pruriens has long been recognized as a natural source of Levodopa (L-dopa), a substance used to treat Parkinson's disease symptoms. Medicinal uses of M. pruriens can be traced back thousands of years within the practice of Ayurvedic medicine. Due to the fact M. pruriens seeds contain roughly 4 to 7 percent L-dopa, coupled with L-dopa's ability to cross your body's blood-brain barrier, the interest in this bean has increased among people seeking natural treatments for Parkinson's.

About M. pruriens, the Bulletproof Blog states, "Known as the dopa bean, this natural herbal supplement is an adaptogen used in Ayurvedic medicine that lowers stress, improves focus, boosts the libido and elevates mood. M. pruriens contains high levels of naturally occurring L-dopa, which is the precursor to dopamine."3,4 Dopamine, a neurotransmitter known as the "feel-good hormone," is a chemical in your brain involved in your body's emotions, motivation and pleasure, as well as its reward system.

When you lack sufficient dopamine, you may feel lethargic, unfocused and maybe even depressed. Karen Kurtak, traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and head of the Longevity Nutrition Department at Grossman Wellness Institute in Denver, says, "M. pruriens has an almost magical ability to improve motivation, well-being, energy and sex drive, along with decreasing the tendency to overeat."5 It's well-known those who suffer from Parkinson's disease lack sufficient dopamine.

Because the L-dopa in M. pruriens boosts dopamine levels in your brain, it continues to be used in Ayurvedic medicine as a treatment for Parkinson's disease. Even though clinical trials have shown M. pruriens to produce equivalent or better results,6 and no side effects, Western medicine continues to use and promote a synthetic form of L-dopa. Beyond Parkinson's treatment, in Ayurvedic medicine M. pruriens is known as an aphrodisiac, remedy for anxiety, depression and infertility and acts as an all-around nerve tonic.7,8
