  • Aged Cheeses

    Allie has been on EMSAM 6 mg for about a month and we could up her to 9 mg, but she's supposed to not have foods rich in tyramine and mainly that means aged cheeses. I'm not sure what qualifies as aged cheeses. Does anyone have any authoritative list or anything like that?

    Aged Cheese's are grown in a mold. They can be soft or hard and are left in a barrel to "cure" Cheese that is not safe for Allie would be things like Cheddar, Colby Monterey Jack, Parmesan, Asagio, Gruyere, Swiss, Roquefert, Brie, and Bleu Cheese also Mozzeralla that you can purchase in block or string form or slice form I would steer clear of.

    There are some fresh cheeses which form anywhere from within a few minutes to 4 days and these are generally safe. Cottage Cheese, Cream Cheese, Ricotta Cheese, Mascarpone, American Cheese, and Fresh Mozzarella (This is found in specialty stores or very close to the deli. It is very soft and sold in its own liquid) Are not aged cheeses and are considered safe for consumption.

    While this list is more for people with migraines it states the safe non aged cheeses and some examples of aged cheeses.

      A PDF on sources of tyramine in foods. This shows, Cath, brie as an eat occasionally cheese. Why it has less tyramine than others I do not know. It is aged significantly less than Camembert and such?

        Yeah its a "Soft" Cheese, and it is aged less, but the Medication she's on is relatively specific about tyramine in foods and Hypertensive crisis. I would avoid anything that's been aged unless its been approved.
        Now there is a Low Tyramine Diet PDF available http://www.nmh.org/ccurl/504/151/Low...ne-diet-08.pdf and it says brie, Parmesan and Romano are safe as a very occasional garnish. So you might want to look at this and submit it to a physician or dietician.
