Can Powerfull be stacked with 5-htp?

[rambo679]

I only ask because I have read several studies that state 5-htp is contraindicated for people taking parkinsons treatment, specifically carbidopa. So my question is, is it safe to take 5-htp with powerfull?

The peripheral DCIs [decarboxylase inhibitors] within Mucuna Pruriens have not been specifically identified; as a result, it is unsure whether carbidopa, or carbidopa like analogues, are contained within Mucuna.

This being said, the symptom which results out of this contraindication is actually not neurological in nature, but physiological: the combination of 5-HTP and carbidopa produces a strange skin condition in PDS patients, due to the production of abnormal proteins in peripheral tissues.

If you plan on using them in conjunction with one another, I would separate the doses by several hours!
