Kara,
It's probably so overwhelming due to all the contradicting stuff out there. I found it best to start out cautious and follow the posted restrictions, even those that seemed unneccessary at first. I then began to add stuff back in that seemed safest based on new research (post 1996) and what others' experiences have been.So, to add to your confusion...I drink red wine without any problem. I never have more than 2 or 3 glasses in one evening...usually just one. So perhaps I'm not getting enough tyramine to cause an effect. But one of the studies I read seemed to confirm that there is not much in red wine, anyway.
Whenever I try something new, I go slow and try just a small amount first. Plus, I make sure my hubby knows what to do and say in the unlikely event he needed to take me to the hospital.
