A member asked:
Is mucuna pruriens safe for children?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
On you own: Since supplements are not usually evaluated by the fda, then you are on your own as far as safety when you use them. I cannot think of a reason to give it to children. I do not recommend it and think the risks outweigh any possible benefits to children.
