Question 1

Accepted Answer

Allergy or other: You would have to specify what you mean by yeast allergy.  Are you experiencing and intolerance or some adverse reaction due to yeast in your body?  Are you truly allergic with immediate or anaphylactic type reactions perhaps verified by testing?  The latter is quite rare and I have never seen it.  Please clarify.

Question 4

can i eat fermented foods like kefir th have alcohol content while on an ssri antidepressant?

Accepted Answer

Usually ok: Most commercially available kefir in the us contains little or no alcohol.  If it's homemade or imported, it may have significant alcohol content.  Taking alcohol with ssris is not recommended — you certainly should not become intoxicated while on an ssri.  But small quantities of alcohol in fermented foods is generally not a problem.

Question 5

can i eat fermented foods like kefir which have alcohol content while on an ssri antidepressant?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Fermented  foods contain  an  amine called tyramine  which  can  cause  your  blood pressure  to  elevate  significantly.  However  this  usually  occurs  when  you  take monoamine oxidase  inhibitors (anotherclass of  antidepressants) and  ingest tyramine. If  you  plan  to  consume  fermented  foods on a  regular  basis it  would  be  wise  to  monitor  your BP  and  to consult  your  physician.
