What is Mucuna Pruriens?

Mucuna Pruriens extract (also known as cowitch and velvet bean) is notable for the presence of L-Dopa, an amino acid that can cross the blood-brain barrier and increase dopamine levels within the brain. 

Many individuals choose to use Mucuna Pruriens extract for a variety of reasons including its ability to support brain health, improve sex drive, boost mood, and increase growth hormone levels. This is of particular interest to bodybuilders and athletes.

Mucuna Pruriens Side Effects And Benefits

Individuals can boost growth hormone levels with exercise, but this is not the only natural way to do so. Since mucuna is so high in L-Dopa, it can also boost growth hormones. Interestingly, researchers believe that L-Dopa's effect on growth hormone is not tied to its ability to increase dopamine in the brain. Instead, the increase in dopamine relates to mucuna's ability to boost mood. 

Dopamine itself is a catecholamine and can turn into norepinephrine, both of which are essential for positive mood.Evidence definitively shows that decreased amounts of dopamine and norepinephrine directly correlate to lower mood state.

Mucuna pruriens is also commonly used as a nootropic. In particular, mucuna pruriens work as an excellent neuroprotectant. It is even able to chelate toxic metals within the brain.

Another notable Mucuna Pruriens side effect is its remarkable ability to improve sex drive. Clearly, mucuna pruriens extract capsules are remarkably diverse nootropics with a variety of benefits.
