its real interesting. It mentions that fava beans are a natural source
of L-Dopa. 100 g of fava is equivilent to 20/100 mg of standard
siniment. In the Middle East fava beans is part of our cuisine. we call
it "foul" in Arabic. Has anyone tried it as a substitute for sinement?

The article mentions that it does though still cause dyskinesias....
