According to the dietary guidelines for Marplan, which has the most liberal guidelines of Marplan/Nardil/Parnate, it says about soy:
"Foods you cannot eat: Most Soybean products, including soy sauce and tofu"
"Foods you can eat: Soy Milk"
I avoid everything soy except for soybean oil, which I figure is the highly refined fat part of soy, and doesn't contain any proteins to cause problems. Too bad, because I don't really like meat, and I had to give up Garden Burgers and Boca Weenies and the like.
You can see it here:
http://validuspharma.com/dev/MarplanDietCard.pdfSince there's only a couple of thing on that chart, I'd take the soy recommendation very seriously. Also note that this is the chart for MARPLAN, not Nardil. Nardil has a stricter list, and when in doubt, I'd err on the side of safety and follow the list for the specific medication I'm taking.
