Question: Has anyone ever took an MAOI, what couldn't you eat, if you ate something you werent supposed to wat happen.?
Answers:
Most MAOI's require that you don't eat
chocolate
aged chesses
alcohol
banana's
bean curd (soy beans)
fresh fish
ginseng
liquid and powdered protein dietary supplements
liver
sausage, bologna, pepperoni and salami
sauerkraut
avocados
sour cream, cottage cheese, cream cheese, yogurt, and milk
peanuts
raspberries
spinach

This is not an all inclusive list, it can go on..

The reason for not eating so many foods is because they contain tyramine which can cause hypertension (high blood pressure) that can immediately get out of control which can cause heart attacks or strokes..

A lot of people will try a food in small amounts to see what happens, if nothing happens they will increase the amount little by little until they are sure that they can consume it with no problems..
