The MacuDopa Story

MacuDopa is more than just a supplement; it's a family endeavor born out of love and necessity. When Caryn, our co-director, was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's, we united as a family to find a natural way to support her. This journey led us to develop MacuDopa, and now we're here to share it with you. From our hearts to yours - Filipa, Caryn and Max

Company Mission

'To find a way to live well naturally with Parkinson's until there is a cure.'

Caryn's Story

"My diagnosis came as a huge shock.  I was young and had a brilliant challenging career in the global music industry."  

I was quite frankly devastated and unsure what to do. I turned to my brother, Max, for help.  He is a very experienced naturopathic functional medicine practitioner, and suggested that I try the Mucuna pruriens bean.  He said that this natural approach had a vast amount of empirical and scientific evidence to support its use. Mucuna supplies a natural form of Levodopa (L-Dopa). My neurologist, based at London’s leading neurological hospital, was supportive.

What is BF¹² and whydo we add it?

BF12 is a specially formulated compound that provides essential nutrients that are proven to support the brain and nervous system. It enhances and supports the action of Mucuna.

It is formulated to contain vitamin B9 (folate) which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, vitamin B7 (biotin) which contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system, and vitamin B12 which contributes to normal psychological function**.​

This makes MacuDopa a world leading supplement that contributes to the support of low dopamine conditions.
