Well honestly i think there are no particular miracle foods - just eating a well balanced diet with minimum of industrial food. There are so many micronutrients in food even beyond vitamins & minerals, and each food has its own unique mix. WE have only identified a few chemicals (EGCG, lycopene, folates, phosphatydylcholine, trimethylglycine, yada yada yada) that i don't think we know yet which are the best foods, and really the mix of a variety probably is synergistic. So getting 8-10 servings of fruit and vegetables, bit of whole grain and some lean meat, nuts/olive oil/eggs/legumes, yoghurt, tea, wine, etc.
I think the biggest thing is just not eating industrial food like cheese puffs and cola. Calories from junk mean you miss out on calories from real food, which has nutrients.
Personally the hard thing for me is when i'm depressed i just lose the energy to cook, which makes it more tempting to just buy a big box of cinnamon toast crunch and eat that for breakfust, lunch, dinner, and snack.
The only thing i really miss on the MAOI diet is all those soy-based asian sauces. stir fry is my fav....
