In reply to Maoi Diet - Lunch meats and Dining out, posted by ivan79 on July 10, 2007, at 18:32:43
This isn't quite what you're looking for, but for restaurants a good friend of mine who takes Nardil has made up a little business card sized list of what she can't eat. She gives it to the waiter, and asks that the kitchen look it over and make sure nothing on it is in what she's ordering. I thought that was a great idea -- she is an awfully smart cookie, as well as being very loveable -- and if I do try an MAOI, I'll do it, too. (It's unlikely, since they're pretty much contraindicated for those with my dx, but you never know...)
Also, like the others, my pdoc has talked to me about the MAOI diet, and the fact that it's not nearly as restrictive as used to be thought. He's got a great reputation around here, and has patients sent from overseas to see him, so I tend to trust what he has to say about these things.
Good luck.
