Food <strong>and</strong> Mood - Cheese<br />
Amines like histamine <strong>and</strong> tyramine are found in large quatities in<br />
cheeses like Cheddar, Blue Ch., Swiss Ch, <strong>and</strong> “Dutch-style” Ch.<br />
In these strongly ripened cheeses the casein protein is broken<br />
down to AAs <strong>and</strong> decarboxylated to amines (smell).<br />
In some people small quant. & in all people large quantities cause<br />
- - rise in blood pressure<br />
- headaches <strong>and</strong> rashes<br />
but cheese prevents tooth decay by Streptococcus<br />
good to end meal with it! Also:<br />
people after cheese feel deep satisfaction<br />
“ A dinner which ends without cheese is like a<br />
beautiful woman with only one eye.” Says<br />
