Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The diet containing fava beans and chianti could be dangerous to some people.

Concept introduction:

Chianti and fava beans are foods with high tyramine content. Fava beans induce hemolytic anemia in some individuals. Favism occurs by ingesting frozen, canned or dried fava beans. Several factors like burden of oxidant pressure and kinetics of metabolism or clearance play an important role in the development of acute hemolysis by the glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase or G6PD deficiency.
