Vitamin B-6 status, energy and protein intakes, and amino acids in the diets and plasma of school-aged patients with Phenylketonuria : implications for an improved nutritional treatment

Creator:: Prince, Annie
Abstract:: Dietary intake data of 15 treated patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) (7-17 years) and six control siblings (6-14 years) were used to evaluate the effectiveness of medical foods to balance energy, protein, vitamin B-6, and individual amino acids from natural foods and to evaluate vitamin B-6 status. Four-day diet records were...
