Those beans are different. If you could grow fava beans to contain the exact same amount of 'dopamine' and if you could reproduce exactly the same ratio of beans and water and cook it for exactly the same time and if are sure you know that you are eating the same amount of fava beans, then and only then it might be useful to you. Otherwise, a truly more scientific system is recommended. Bon appetit !!!
