He mentions a liquid product referred to as DepPro close to the tip of the PDF you linked to. About 1mg of Deprenyl per drop. That will make it extra handy than chopping a 5 milligram tablet into 5 items.
I discovered it on-line for $69.99 for 300 mg. So it might solely be about $7 per thirty days at their really helpful dosage of 1 mg per day.
LEF recommends 10 mg per week. That will be about $10 per thirty days.
Per data in one other latest thread, Deprenyl was discovered to work synergistically with Polyscias Fruticosa in mice and rats. I simply began making tea from it a pair days in the past. (Aka dinh lang, or ming aralia).
I’m contemplating extra like 5mg per day.

I’ll add Knoll is the originator of virtually all of the life-extending mice analysis. There are ones with null impact. It’s merely an remark – onerous to conclusively take it in some way.
I believe you’re proper, he emailed me when this thread began. Plenty of good data however there are some complexities with deprenyl.
Simply all those talked about on this thread – potential interactions with sure different medicines, and so forth.
MAO inhibitor? Goodbye aged cheese for spermidine. This can produce the tyramine impact, leading to extreme hypertension.
Biochemistry, Tyramine – StatPearls – NCBI Bookshelf.
I can’t quit aged cheese.
I believe that’s the reason I averted it, after I learn it, from I consider, Durk Pearson and Sandy Shaw.
Goodbye as nicely to the next:
Examples of meals excessive in tyramine embody:
- Sturdy or aged cheeses, similar to aged cheddar, Swiss and Parmesan; blue cheeses similar to Stilton and Gorgonzola; and Camembert. Cheeses produced from pasteurized milk are much less more likely to comprise excessive ranges of tyramine — for instance, American cheese, cottage cheese, ricotta, farmer cheese and cream cheese.
- Cured meats, that are meats handled with salt and nitrate or nitrite, similar to dry-type summer season sausages, pepperoni and salami.
- Smoked or processed meats, similar to sizzling canine, bologna, bacon, corned beef or smoked fish.
- Pickled or fermented meals, similar to sauerkraut, kimchi, caviar, tofu or pickles.
- Sauces, similar to soy sauce, shrimp sauce, fish sauce, miso and teriyaki sauce.
- Soybeans and soybean merchandise.
- Snow peas, broad beans (fava beans) and their pods.
- Dried or overripe fruits, similar to raisins or prunes, or overripe bananas or avocados.
- Meat tenderizers or meat ready with tenderizers.
- Yeast-extract spreads, similar to Marmite, brewer’s yeast or sourdough bread.
- Alcoholic drinks, similar to beer — particularly faucet or homebrewed beer — purple wine, sherry and liqueurs.
- Mixture meals that comprise any of the above components.
- Improperly saved meals or spoiled meals. Whilst you’re taking an MAOI, your physician could suggest consuming solely contemporary meals — not leftovers or meals previous their freshness dates.
I drink beer, take dietary yeast for RNA, and aged cheddar, all of which I favor not to surrender.

Sure – it looks as if it turns into an enormous burden when it comes to weight loss program and medicine administration every day. An excessive amount of work for me.
That is from the Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medication. Summary and full textual content PDF:
Experimental research recommend that inhibi-
tion of greater than 70% of MAO-A exercise is
obligatory for the antidepressant impact of sele-
giline. At oral doses that selectively inhibit
MAO-B (5–10 mg/day), selegiline doesn’t
appear to have potent antidepressant exercise,
though it does present success as an adjunc-
tive remedy for Parkinson illness and does
not necessitate any dietary restriction. Solely
at larger oral doses (20–60 mg/day), at which
MAO-B selectivity is misplaced, is the antidepres-
sant impact seen. However the larger doses neces-
sitate dietary restrictions.
Based on the above, decrease doses of 5-10 mg/day don’t necessitate dietary restrictions. However doses above this do. Additionally, another sources suggest protocols of just one mg per day for anti-aging, or 10 mg per week just like the Life Extension Basis.
Right here’s one other research reference with hyperlink to summary beneath:
In contrast to the nonselective MAO inhibitors, selegiline doesn’t considerably potentiate tyramine-induced hypertension (the ‘cheese impact’) on the dosages (5 to 10 mg day by day) used for the remedy of Parkinson’s illness.

I’ll observe uncommon hypertensive reactions with tyramine merchandise have been reported beneath 10 mg pill per day. You’re citing an previous research. It’s probably that MAO-A nonetheless will get inhibited to some extent at decrease doses, maybe worse in some individuals. “Selective” at low doses doesn’t imply it’s out of the blue no exercise on the off-target – it’s a gradient that in all probability varies by particular person. There is no such thing as a assured magical cutoff
Is that this a extreme problem particularly for weight loss program restriction for most individuals? Most likely not. However it isn’t as fully and conclusively secure because the promoters declare it to be both. One hypertensive disaster response is sufficient to doubtlessly trigger extreme or deadly hurt in some people who could falsely assume 100% security.
It’s noncompetitive inhibition, so not so simple as it appears. I’ll additionally point out it’s doable for different drug-drug interactions for a hyperadrenergic state that results in a hypertensive disaster, not only a tyramine deal.

I cited two. And Deprenyl has been authorised since 1989. And the Cleveland Clinic paper is from 2010. That doesn’t qualify as previous to me.
This comes from Mayo Clinic:
“When selegiline is taken at doses of 10 mg or much less per day for the remedy of Parkinson’s illness, there are not any restrictions on meals or drinks you eat or drink.”
Additionally, in the event you’re following the LEF protocol at day by day dosages totaling 10 mg per week, or the most typical advice of 1 mg per day, you’re then taking one seventh or one tenth of a dosage that these sources say are secure to make use of with out meals restriction. That’s fairly a further security margin.

I wasn’t referring to the Cleveland Clinic paper which doesn’t say there are not any probability for doable negative effects in the event you learn it very intently so usually affected person schooling and monitoring and so forth occurs to watch uncommon negative effects, the second cited one which does make this “no aspect impact” declare was 1998.
I ponder in the event you learn the way more up to date FDA drug packet on the very least earlier than taking or suggesting any drug for human use with out absolutely understanding it. This reveals that 1998 declare was improper to imagine. It’s a fairly fundamental step to learn the up to date wonderful print as a primary step. This one is the 5 mg pill particularly for PD.
Once more, not so simple as you assume. Security margin could also be excessive for 1 mg when utilized to tyramine solely, however there are nonetheless doable danger components similar to a spread of drug interactions, not simply tyramine.
“In concept, since MAO-A of the intestine just isn’t inhibited, sufferers handled with selegiline at a dose of 10 mg a day ought to be capable to take medicines containing pharmacologically lively amines and eat tyramine-containing meals with out danger of uncontrolled hypertension. Though uncommon, a couple of experiences of hypertensive reactions have occurred in sufferers receiving selegiline on the really helpful dose, with tyramine-containing meals. As well as, one case of hypertensive disaster has been reported in a affected person taking the really helpful dose of selegiline and a sympathomimetic treatment, ephedrine. The pathophysiology of the ‘cheese response’ is difficult and, along with its potential to inhibit MAO-B selectively, selegiline’s relative freedom from this response has been attributed to a capability to stop tyramine and different oblique appearing sympathomimetics from displacing norepinephrine from adrenergic neurons. Nevertheless, till the pathophysiology of the ‘cheese response’ is extra fully understood, it appears prudent to imagine that selegiline can ordinarily solely be used safely with out dietary restrictions at doses the place it presumably selectively inhibits MAO-B (e.g., 10 mg/day). In brief, consideration to the dose dependent nature of selegiline’s selectivity is vital whether it is for use with out elaborate restrictions being positioned on weight loss program and concomitant drug use though, as famous above, a couple of instances of hypertensive reactions have been reported on the really helpful dose.”

With out absolutely understanding it? I’m not serious about being talked all the way down to by you. Additionally, in the event you’re going to maintain holding your self out as a medical physician and talking with an air {of professional} authority, I believe it’s essential to present indentifying info in your profile as different professionals right here have carried out. In any other case, it is best to in all probability amend your username and cease mentioning you’re a medical physician.
As an analogy, if somebody was on a discussion board complaining about issues they’re having with their residential landlord not guaranteeing repairs, a response from one other common member saying, “If I had been you, I’d withhold lease”, could be taken a lot in a different way than another person posting and claiming to be an legal professional with username “John Smith, Esq” and saying, “One treatment is to withhold rental funds till requested repairs are made.” After which placing a authorized recommendation disclaimer beneath their identify.

First, off I didn’t say you didn’t perceive since you’re not an MD, nor would I inform somebody off simply because they don’t seem to be an MD. I’ve advised the identical actual issues to colleagues. I’m displaying you’re actually not understanding the problem regardless of already beforehand mentioning it twice and never even studying the fundamentals. It’s irritating.
Second, I don’t have to reveal my full identification publicly as a result of delicate info shared right here nor I’ve any want for anybody on the web I don’t absolutely belief to start out harassing me or calling work with any of this. And sure I’m actual. At the least a number of people who’ve been massively messaging me for the reason that day of time assume and maybe know I’m. I’m very happy to make use of a shared third social gathering to vouch and confirm as wanted, however I’m not going to share my identification publicly.

From expertise being on an maoi for a number of prolonged intervals, I believe the dietary restrictions are very overstated. After I was on phenelzine, I pushed the boundaries with all practically all the forbidden meals (not together with aged meat) and by no means had a hypertensive disaster. Maybe there have been a couple of odd events the place I felt a barely elevated coronary heart price. I believe the image grew to become extra clear after they did tyramine challenges throughout the emsam patch trials. Only a few of the meals as soon as thought to have tyramine truly do. Anyhow if you wish to follow considerable warning with deprenyl you may get round intestine mao inhibition with sublingual admin. IIRC the nootropic advice is 1mg sublingual to get the approximate impact of 5mg oral, so the drops could be good for that. Caveat emptor. Personally I can’t stand how deprenyl makes me really feel inside 2-3 days of taking 5mg day by day. Others describe that as a motivation and temper increase. I simply really feel agitated.
Really, yesterday in one other associated thread about Deprenyl, I posted an summary the place the researcher really helpful 1 mg day by day of Deprenyl as an antiaging drug. You then responded and mentioned, “Low-dose Deprenyl is a given, the standard adjunct dose is 1.25 mg per day to start out for PD.” I then politely knowledgeable you that was just for the tablet that dissolves within the mouth, as the standard dosage for normal Deprenyl for treating PD is 5 mg twice day by day. You then responded once more, claiming the sort that dissolves orally is what you had been truly speaking about: “Sure, I used to be referring to ODT 1.25 mg qd as preliminary dose – additionally oral tab 5 mg twice day by day just isn’t at all times the case – some docs use half or much less to start out.” Which makes zero sense as a response to my submit concerning the 1 mg common Deprenyl paper. You clearly made a mistake and lined it up. After which did you return and do enhancing?
You additionally have interaction in delicate sophistry and straw man argumentation in your posts and appear to imagine that different individuals aren’t as good as you so that they received’t discover.
I’m not impressed with the thought of one other username and doable sock puppet “vouching” for you, not even thr homeowners. You’re the one making the claims. You’ll be able to assist them with figuring out data as different docs and pharmacists and such right here, or you may come all the way down to the identical stage as the remainder of us and begin sharing your particular person opinions and concepts with out the air {of professional} authority. That’s simply my opinion. If it isn’t shared by the homeowners or others right here, okay. I’ll simply be a dissenting voice.
This shall be my final submit associated to this.
