Famous superfoodist, David Wolfe states, “I categorize mucuna as an anti stimulant that should be taken with stimulant-containing foods or beverages (i.e. coffee, yerba mate, cacao, etc.) The cacao-mucuna stimulant-to-antistimulant relationship is one of the oldest known, dating back thousands of years.
