Thanks for the responses. I know Ensam (selegiline) is a bit different MAOI. Especially with restrictions. I'm just talking about a simple whey protein powder with isolates and hydrolysates. I don't know what the difference is between the amino acids found in a powder vs. those found in whole food protein sources. I don't know why it would be a big deal. Apparently these MAOI's are so ancient it seems a lot of research and interest has been abandoned. This is unfortunate since this class of drugs (which is so underprescribed and avoided) seems to really be a beneficial if not life changing med for a few people who are non-responsive to most meds. Thanks again for the replies. If anyone can clear up this question I will no kidding cut you a check. I really would like to know with some scientific basis why I can't have a protein powder, but I can eat all the chicken, steak, tuna, etc., I want. These all have the same amino acid profiles to a certain extent and as such will include quantities of tryptophan, tyramine, and phenylalanine. I just don't get it. Thanks again though. H. Upmann
