Hi all,
I started on Parnate a few weeks ago. Am at 40mg right now.
My mother has recruited me to embark on a juice fasting weekend at a spa. I know those are basically inane and pointless, but she's paid for it and I can't turn it down.
Q: I suspect some of the juice will have *apple cider vinegar* in it because of the supposed fat burning qualities. Do you think this is a risky interaction for me?
Q2: Should I harass them about the supplements they may add to the juice?
Q3: Has anyone had any trouble with conventional frozen meals like Lean Cuisine (without cheese sauce or sausage of course)? They list autolyzed yeast so I've stayed away so far in fear but I hate to give them up altogether.
Thanks in advance,
Catherine

Hi catherine. Hope the parnate is helping.
I suppose its possible vinegar could have tyramine in it, although the extra filtering is going to make the protein content in it very low. i've never noticed anything from rice wine vinegar. I might worry a bit more about it if it is like local, craft brew kind of thing. i'm not too big on industrial food manufacture, but it does have more filtering, control of bacterial effects, etc. i ask what goes into food though, as you never guess what a creative chef can think of...
hope its relaxing

Thanks, desolation.
There also appear to be "broths" which makes me think of dreaded bouillon cubes.
As for the apple cider vinegar, I was slightly more worried about the "apple cider" aspect of the vinegar. Hopefully I can ask to have that ingredient substituted or taken out.
I guess I'll have to push my way into the kitchen for some quizzing. Maybe they'll let me take a look at the products.
The spa sounds rather boring, really, but we're bringing books!

Basically you need to beware of protein that has gone off. Remember also that it's dose dependent, so it's how much tyramine that is important. Cider vinegar contains virtually nothing (beneficial or harmful) except acetic acid. Gives me stomach ache. If it causes weight loss it's because it makes people feel ill so they eat less.
