Ray, the turmeric does not dissolve. I just stir it so that it is well suspended and give it to Prem to drink immediately. I am not sure about the mucuna pruriens because it can also have the adverse effects as it contains l-dopa. Though it is easily available here, Prem was advised against it by his ayurvedic doctor since he is on a fair dose of l-dopa anyway. The doctor told us about a patient of his who unilaterally increased his mucuna pruriens because it was doing him good and he got quite severe dyskinesia. Depends, I imagine, on how much sinemet you are taking.
