> In the literature you picked up does it say anything about soy protein - like in soy burgers?
"vita tofu" 300 g goes from 0.2268 mg to 4.7914 mg of tyramine if stored 7 days in refrigerator (4 degrees C)...
one veggie burger after 7 days in the fridge
100 g had 0.0628 mg of tyramine, 2 days later, the level went up to 0.5983 mg of tyramine ...
so i take it freshness is quite important ...
... basically today you could eat two burgers and have no effect, the next day you could eat half of a burger and really have a lot of trouble
but they only seemed to have tested one type that i can tell.... so if i were to risk it, i would probably stick to one brand, and at first start out by eating one bite every hour or so and taking my blood pressure.... or does tyramine show an effect on bp faster than that?
then again, how relevent is it how long it has been stored in the grocery store? ....have you guys heard anything about soy burgers?
