Mucuna Extract by Protocol For Life Balance is a dietary supplement designed to support normal brain and nervous system function as well as promote a positive mood. The key ingredient in Mucuna Extract is a traditional Ayurvedic herb called Mucuna pruriens, or Velvet Bean, a creeping vine that is native to India, Africa and the Caribbean. This legume contains the direct dopamine precursor, L-Dopa, effective at penetrating the blood-brain barrier so that the brain can produce dopamine, the neurotransmitter vital for healthy brain and nervous system functioning.
Individuals who take Mucuna Extract on a daily basis can experience a number of valuable health benefits:
- Provides a natural source of levodopa for healthy brain function.
- Supports healthy functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system.
- Supports the body's ability to respond to stress.
- Promotes coordination, physical balance and healthy motor skills.
