In response to the last few posts:
(1) I've had teriyaki chicken breast and teriyaki on lots of other thinks - never a reaction. Could it possibly be the type of soy sauce used? The watered-down soy used in most commercial sauces and even some Chinese restaurants (soy blanded to suit American tastes) is probably harmless.
(2) Re yeast in frozen dinners. That is all I eat. I would estimate that I have eaten approximately 3000 frozen dinners since taking up to 60 mg. of Nardil and 50 mg. of Parnate and narry the slightest hint of a reaction (you do have to be careful not to have a TV dinner with cheese, broad bean pods, etc.) I take this to reflect the amount of yeast in these dinners and the condition of it by the time it gets combinecd with the thousands of other chemicals.
3) I too get the "no one has ever heard of what you're taking" or (they stopped prescribed that in the 60's, for good reason) type of reactions from doctors and others. One good thing about this on-line community is that you realize you are NOT the only one taking an MAO - and I've gotten better info here than from some doctors.
