Why Should Tyramine-Containing Foods Be Avoided by People Taking MAOIs

Why should tyramine-containing foods be avoided by people taking MAOIs?

A) Tyramine contains the enzyme tyrosine,which inactivates DA,causing a severe drop in DA levels that results in hypertensive crisis.
B) Tyramine is necessary in the body to make MAO,so adding tyramine-containing foods is contraindicated.
C) The enzymes necessary to metabolize tyramine counteract the effects of MAO inhibitors (MAOIs) and essentially deactivate their effects.
D) Inhibition of MAO does not allow tyramine to be metabolized,resulting in stored DA to be released and potentially causing hypertensive crisis.
