Nutricost Mucuna Pruriens 400Mg, 120 Capsules - Made With Mucuna Pruriens Seed

Just started using this product and it does exactly what it says. Calms you down. I haven’t started taking the 2nd capsule yet but plan to after a bit longer getting used to the 1st capsule. Price and quality of the product is good too so gave this 5 stars. Nutricost seems to do a good job keeping its products clean, with no smells or residues.

I left the review at 5 because the brand is terrific and this reaction is not their fault. But I do want to share so others are aware. There are several benefits that led to purchasing this supplement. I always research interactions and side effects prior to trying one. I have bipolar 1 and ADD-inattentive. I take effexor, lamictal, and adderall for those dx. I also take desyrel (I don't sleep AT ALL without it), and aricept to prevent more cognitive decline. I took it with my noon meds. I thought I was having a heart attack. Extreme nausea and vertigo started after about 20 minutes and I had to lie down. Followed by severe tachycardia, chest pain, and headache. I couldn't even get up to use the bathroom. By the time those symptoms eased off, I was freezing like I had a fever, but my temp was normal. This and impaired coordination lasted the rest of the evening, but the following morning everything was normal again. I knew it acted as a dopamine precursor similar to adderall, but none of my research listed that as an interaction. Nevermind the fact that the symptoms were more similar to serotonin syndrome than stimulant overdose. Just proceed with caution if you have similar dx and a medication regimen like mine.

frankly I prefer the powder from same company--since MUCUNA requires a supplemental B for absorption I find it easier too empty the B apsule into the liquid powder & drink--flavorless and very affective for my condition

I can attest this has not only helped my rampant off-the-charts ADD, but my wife notes the difference in my motivation and moods, and my boss/company notes that I'm able to really utilize a fuller range of my mental abilities. In the past, my ADD was rather toxic, and led to procrastination and "other"-attentiveness (ADD isn't a lack of attention, it's getting hijacked at the hardware level, so my brain is paying attention to whatever will give it brain the most dopamine at the moment!) Despite being a "good" employee and usually, the smartest guy in the room, dopamine deprivation led to unemployment and worse. Over the last 4 years or so I started a natural regimen that doesn't leave me in a fog; and I've tuned in a combination of dopamine, creatine, lyseine and other neuro-supplements, so that I can harness my neuro-diversity for good, and it's been such a game changer! Highly recommended! - - - BTW amazon user @Faust, you need to read the label better. You gave it 1.0 out of 5 stars for False advertising., saying that "The capsules only weigh 630-640mg total, meaning there's about 2/3 the advertised amount in each pill." But it's not per pill, it's 800mg per SERVING (which is how nutrition labels are written), which is clearly stated as TWO CAPSULES. So even using your low measurements of 630mg/per, that's 1260mg total, of which 800mg is Mucuna, and ~460 is capsule, fillers, etc. The math works, and it's an excellent product. Maybe if you took more Mucuna you wouldn't be distracted by learning about the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Science would indicate this should used only 1-3 times per week as part of an on/off nootropic stack But be prepared for righteous vibes and Tasty Waves! This is the stuff Jeff Spicoli was eating! So get some pizza delivered to History class
