I am taking Parnate and I am going on holiday to Italy for a couple of weeks.
I have always enjoyed freshly made pizza and there will be plenty of it in Italy. How dangerous is a simple fresh "cheese & tomato" Napoletana pizza likely to be? I am not talking about the sort of pizza in Pizza Hut.
I am a bit concerned that Italian pizza restaurants may not use mozzarella cheese (which I think is ok with MAOIs) but they might substitute something else else for it. Is a typical pizza cheese likely to be bad for me?
What about if the mozzarella used on a pizza has not been kept properly. Could that lead to worrying levels of tyramine? I notice that mozzarella has about as much protein as cheddar does http://www.annecollins.com/protein_diet/protein-cheese.htm so do you think mozzarella could develop tyramine if left to go off?
I'd welcome any views.
