Re: Bad reaction to sinemet, info please
Although rice and beans provide all the required amino acids, these could well be the culprits in negating the effects of Sinemet. The consumption of any protein should be done at least one half an hour after Sinemet and at least one hour before Sinemet. The amino acids compete and crowd out the dopamine in the race to the brain. At least that's the way I learned about it.
