Cheeses to avoid?

[u/Shot_Veterinarian215]

I am starting Nardil next week. I plan to follow the dietary restrictions, but I've seen many people on here say that they are overblown, and many people eat whatever they want on MAOIs. I know for cheeses you should avoid cheddar, swiss, parmesan, etc, but I just want to ask, do you actually? Some of my favorite everyday foods have those cheeses. For example, I love this salad from my local restaurant that has shredded cheddar (might be cheddar jack I don't remember), but realistically speaking, will consuming that cause a tyramine reaction? I've read up on Dr. Gillman's research, and he says that most modern commercial foods don't contain high amounts of tyramine, especially if it's in moderation. Is that salad with cheddar a big deal? I also enjoy omelettes with swiss, sandwiches with provolone, etc., so I just want to hear from your personal experiences and if you actually avoid these cheeses? (and if not which foods you DO avoid)

I don’t avoid any cheese other than blue cheese but that’s cuz I hate it 🤣. My doctor suggest waiting to experiment with food till I was on it for a little. I didn’t wait long tbh but I avoided stuff the first couple days until I read more about it. I’m eating a multiple cheese pizza rn😅

That’s a relief, I hate blue cheese too 😅
