Harmane (harman) is a bio-active β-Carboline and monoamine oxidase inhibitor found in coffee[2] and tobacco smoke.[3] Harmane is strongly associated with Essential Tremor, one of the most common neurological diseases in the elderly.[4] It is likely to be the main endogenous ligand for the benzodiazepine receptor. [5] Highest concentrations are found in cooked meat (chicken, beef, pork and fish).
