Part Description
LP203171-6 Tyramine intake
Tyramine (4-hydroxyphenethylamine; para-tyramine, mydrial or uteramin) is an amino acid derived from the amino acid tyrosine that helps regulate blood pressure. It occurs naturally in the body and is found in certain foods. The adrenal glands respond to tyramine by sending catecholamine into the bloodstream, along with dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine, providing a boost of energy and, in turn, elevation of blood pressure and heart rate. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) block an enzyme, monoamine oxidase that breaks down excess tyramine. Blocking this enzyme helps relieve depression. Most people consume tyramine with no negative side effects, however, people taking MAOIs and other some other medications need to follow a tyramine restricted diet to avoid tyramine build up and dangerous blood pressure spikes. Tyramine is naturally found in small amounts in protein-containing foods and as these foods age, tyramine levels increase. Some foods containing tyramine include; strong or aged cheeses, cured meats, smoked or fermented foods (such as sauerkraut, kimchee, caviar, or pickles), sauces (soy sauce, shrimp sauce), and alcoholic beverages such as beer.
