       | Myself, I cannot drink green tea or eat chocolate because it
       | inhibits NOS1 and I have a genetic sensitivity (NOS1AP) that
       | causes them to trigger mania, anxiety, and insomnia as do many of
       | the phenols in many plant foods.

         | Whoa. Never heard of that, that is quite interesting. I wonder
         | if some people have that sensitivity and not know it.
