OK, so I'm liking my new Nardil Rx. But still getting used to the food issues.
Thought my other half was trying to kill me two days ago when he served me a soy-based veggie burger. I was two bites into it before I freaked. Since then, from the reading I've been doing, I think that was much ado about nothing.
Am I understanding correctly that soy products are OK so long as they're not fermented (e.g. soy sauce, miso, etc.)? Veggie burgers are frozen, so if cooked and eaten immediately, there's very little chance any bioactive amines (BA) could have accumulated, which is what causes the problem, right? What about tofu that's eaten while fresh? And fresh/frozen soybeans eaten as a cooked vegetable - is that considered OK?
I'm led to believe that things cooked in or containing soybean oil are OK - is that true? I can live without soy sauce, but eliminating all things soy from the diet is very hard to do...
Thanks for your valuable feedback!
