velvet Bean for Parkinson’s
Posted by Unknown on 31st Jul 2024
My partner hasn’t been on this long enough to say it’s working, but it’s a better option than the medical tablets to increase dopamine.

Great to have an alternative for L-Dopa
Posted by Sharon on 3rd Dec 2023
I purchased this product for my husband who has had Parkinsons Disease for 17 years to help him slowly wean off prescribed medication. He has been on the Velvet Bean 20X for a few months which has replaced his 11am medications and so far so good.
It's great that this is from an Australian company who wonderful service and respond to your questions quickly!

Really helps parkinsons
Posted by Tim on 7th Jun 2023
I purchase this product to help with my fathers Parkinsons disease. It works very quickly (if not taken on a full stomach) in controlling shaking and leg cramps and lasts longer than the sinemet tablets. But most importantly, the serious side effects from sinimet suck as confusion and light headedness are not there. HIs sleeping is also much better. Couldn't recommend this mode.

A quality source of mucuna dopa
Posted by Nikki S on 10th Oct 2021
I purchased this product as an alternative to another mucuna dopa product I was buying (that I could no longer source), to help manage my husband's moods. I swapped it for his previous tablets and have not seen any change in the effects, which is awesome. I especially love that it's pure herb with no additives and that we're supporting a local Australian company. Will definitely keep buying.

Alternative to Synthetic L-Dopa for Parkinson's Disease and Mood Enhancer
Posted by Martin on 3rd Sep 2020
I have purchased the Velvet Bean 20X twice now. Delivered from Perth, WA to Sydney in three days each time.
The Velvet Bean has been effective at lifting my mood, focus and achievement and, more importantly, assisting my partner's Parkinson's Disease symptoms in just a couple of weeks. Her leg tremor is much less and her strength has improved. It has given her hope. Fantastic!
Excellent service and excellent product.
Highly recommended.

This tablet is the consentrated form of the Mucuna Puriens and is a great alternative to Sinamet. It also assist the joints by keeping them loose.

Very effective
Posted by Joel on 12th Jun 2019
Simply the best Velvet Bean extract to be found anywhere. It’s very effective and consistent in its constituent quality. I use it to help with focus and mood, and it is always effective. Unlike other velvet bean supplements I’ve tried, this is the only one that has readily apparent, positive effects.

Parkinson's Disease Sufferers: Alternative Dopamine
Posted by Pauline Pietersen on 14th Oct 2018
This is an excellent alternative to Sinamet. AFter extensive and heavy accupuncture by one of the world's best, the dosage has been reduced from 5x tablets every 1.5 hours to 1 every 2 hours. Slowly allowing the liver to recover (after 10 years of pharmaceuticals and alternatives) with the aid of milk thistle. also detoxing the heavy metals with MCP.
Thanks for always delivering this vital medication without any issues.

Great, but why no listing for the L-DOPA percent?
Posted by Ken Linder on 9th Sep 2018
The quality of the extract is quite good. It is very helpful for my FMS and neuropathy. That said, it is never a good idea to produce an herbal concentrate without listing the percent of the most important active ingredient in the concentrate. Plants are not perfect duplicates of one another. This is why a lot of herbal concentrates have that informatin on them, and quite a few are standardized to contain at least a certain amount of the most vital substance . Plants vary in strength. With Mucuna, the amount of L-DOPA varies wildly depending on the source (L-DOPA ranges from 2% to 6% are common). The product you sell would be more dependable (and trustworthy) if you tested it and listed the amount of L-DOPA in the product.

Good product, great service
Posted by Igor on 17th Jan 2018
I'm using velvet bean for over five years to manage my parkinsons. I managed first four years on velvet bean alone, only adding L-dopa later. I was always impressed with prompt service.

I am off heavy pharmacueticals , thanks to this product.
Posted by Ttracey Maree on 10th Jul 2017
3 years ago I had a neurological collapse , my doctor thought it could of been small strokes (TIA) . I saw a wonderful neurologist in Singapore who had seen someone once with my symptoms. Uneven strength, facial droop , killer headache. After much testing he recognised I had PLMS . My system had been stuck since childhood in fright /flight . I hadn't really slept deeply or well since I was 3. This played havoc neurologically and with various hormones including cortisols. Since starting Velvet bean , attending emotional release work called the Gift (grail for men ) from a group called Shematrix and watching my stressors I am off the following pharmaceuticals Gabapantin, Sifrol and Lyrica . I take 2 twice daily . A friend put me onto this , her sister helped control her Parkinson symptoms with this

Managing My Parkinson's
Posted by Louis on 8th Apr 2014
I have been living with Parkinson's for almost 9 years. I currently take 2tablets 3x/day of the Vevet Bean 20:1, but I would like to reduce the amount. Why did you stop making the Vevet Bean 40:1? with that product I only needed to take 1tablet 3x/day. Could you bring back the 40:1?

Works very well for me.
Posted by Unknown on 11th Sep 2013
I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease more than a year ago. I am currently on two tablets and due to complaints about stiffness in my hands and feet, the doctor prescribed a third medicine. I was very reluctant. I then did research about alternate medicines and came across Velvet bean. I have been taking 4 tablets a day and it has made a remarkable difference. Thank and praises goes to God alone.
The stiffness is reduced, I have more energy, and the tremor I was experiencing is almost non existent.
I will definitely recommend it for Parkinson's.
