Since Requip doesn't replace the dopamine in the brain but rather mimics it (and in this I'm mimicking what I think I have read since I really don't know what I'm talking about), does that mean that if one could get completely off Sinemet and onto requip, that parsing protein intake would no longer be a factor and one could face each meal with relish (no pun intended) regardless of its protein content?
