 MAOI Diet
If a sufficient amount of pressor amines are released, a patient may experience a severe occipital or temporal headache, diaphoresis, mydriasis, nuchal rigidity, palpitations, and the elevation of both diastolic and systolic blood pressure may ensue (Anon, 1989; Da Prada et al, 1988; Brown and Bryant, 1988).
Please review the dietary restrictions that should be observed when a patient is receiving monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) therapy.

Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an enzyme involved in the breakdown of tyramine and catecholamines.
The foods listed above, as well as the amino acid tyrosine from which tyramine is derived, must be avoided in patients taking MAO inhibitor drugs.
Tyramine also raises blood pressure by causing the release of catecholamines.

 ferments - thoughts to Andrew
Feingold also tries to make a connection between tyramine processing and sulfur handling - I didn't research this more fully, though - so I can't give particulars or say whether it is valid.
I believe tyramine and excess sulfur play a part in my own problems as many of my symptoms are indicative of sympathetic stimulation - more rapid/stronger heart beat, inhibited gall bladder and bile ducts, constricted blood vessels, hypoglycemia like symptoms (due to excessive liver release of glucose), sweating, etc.
Is it possible that your body can't handle the tyramine load in fermented/cultured foods?

Phenylethylamine and tyramine are mixed-acting sympathomimetic amines in the brain.
In contrast, on a resistance vessel, the perfused central ear artery of the rabbit, PEA enhances stimulation induced contractions in 0.2-0.8 microgram/ml concentration [catecholaminergic activity enhancer (CAE) effect], and increases smooth muscle tone (noradrenaline displacing effect) in 4-6 micrograms/ml concentration.
PEA and tyramine, which are rapidly metabolized in vivo, are ineffective in this test up to 40 mg/kg, whereas (-)methamphetamine, the stable PEA derivative, is highly effective.

Other unwanted effects include increased appetite and weight gain, insomnia, headache, drowsiness, dry mouth, and sexual disturbances.
