I think this is one of the better ive found online and is far more than the original MAOI diet lists. I dont agree completely with this list but it is more reasonable than most others. I will list my disagreements below.
**A few of my own notes on this list**:
I've found these "prohibited" foods OK to eat:
Cheeses: cheddar, provolone, parmensan
Soy sauce
Caffeine
Chocolate
whey protein powder
I haven't even looked at or followed the diet in years. The diet is always changing and I have eaten everything on it in huge quantities and nothing has ever happened. I only would check it again if I was on a dose of 60mg or higher and had a lighter body weight.
^ Yeah i went abit overboard, ive read the 3rd Ed online so i bought the Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology 4th ed... Read it 2times and selected parts some more...
Met Dr Jackass... I informed him that i just read Stahl's new book...
Anyway i started laughing at him, telling him that he was wrong and asking if he wanted me to explaine how it works!!!
I've learned a lot by reading this forum and other sources on the MAOI diet as I've started following it, so I thought I'd add a running list of some of the forbidden or grey area items that I've successfully eaten - and update whenever possible. I've been careful to take my blood pressure after eating these items. I don't see brand names listed in most places so I'll include those too.
Cheese
American (2 slices Kraft Deluxe: contains cheddar)
Shredded mozzarella (1 cup Trader Joe's lite)
Sushi
Tuna roll, salmon roll, lobster roll
Soy sauce
Kikkoman (1 tbsp)
Pizza
Dominoes (3 pieces hand tossed: chicken, mushrooms, onions)
Medication and other
Propanolol (10 mg)
Phenibut (3 grams)
