Can pure dopamine, L-Dopa from Mucuna Pruriens supplement, make me psychotic? I am sure it improves my negative symptoms as it raises dopamine in all the brain.
“L - DOPA is a precursor to dopamine that passes the blood - brain barrier and is mainly taken up by the dopaminergic neurons that convert L - DOPA to dopamine and increase their dopamine production and storage.”
Health Canada is informing Canadians that two unauthorized health products (listed in the table below) were seized from Next Level Fitness, in Richmond #130 - 12560 Bridgeport Road, Richmond, BC V6V 2N5 and at #108 - 13569 76 Ave, Surrey, BC, V3W 2W3 Surrey, B.C. The products TRT (Testosterone Booster) and Freak’n Test (Testosterone Enhancer) were labelled to contain a prescription drug substance (L-Dopa) that may pose serious health risks to Canadians.
Yea I know that it can cause psychosis as it raises dopamine but I was wondering if a small dose wouldn’t do that and would improve negative symptoms. I guess its playing with fire as it increases dopamine, opposite to antipsychotics.
Problem is that I think its illegal in Canada. I don’t want the border police call me like they did before for lithium. Lithium supplements are illegal in Canada.
