Hi all,

        I have a question ... just a quick one, I hope.

        I  recently read "somewhere" that a herb called Passion Flower
     can increase the effectiveness of levodopa.  Does anyone have any
     experience  with  this?   I  have heard that this herb comes in a
     liquid and a capsule form.  I am currently experimenting with the
     capsule  form  and  I think I have noticed some positive effects.
     But, I will readily admit that I may just be experiencing a  sort
     of  placebo effect.  Does anyone know if the liquid form would be
     better/different than the capsule form? ...  Or how  much  should
     be  taken?  ...  Or if it should be taken at the same time as the
     levodopa or at different times? ...

        I'm just kind of curious if anybody has  tried  this  and  has
     some  experience  they  can relate.  Thanks for listening and for
     any thoughts you might have.  I'll go back and lurk for  a  while
     now ... ;-)
