10 products containing substances that can trigger genetic disorders such as phenylketonuria are listed below.
- When a person with PKU eat grains, such as bread and pasta, or aspartame, an artificial sweetener, a potentially dangerous buildup of phenylalanine may happen.
- Many chemicals that can damage our genetic makeup are in our environment, both natural and man-made.
- In addition to viruses, industrial chemicals, combustion byproducts, alcohol, Ultraviolet and ionizing radiation, and even the oxygen we breathe are among these agents.
- The lowest amount above norm of hyperphenylalaninemia.
- Blood level are slightly elevated in mild PKU.
- Moderate or modest: Levels are neither low nor high.
- Glutamate levels in the blood are high in a classic PKU.
- Phenylalanine hydroxylase, or PAH (pronounced fen-l-AL-uh-neen hahy-DROK-suh-leys), is an enzyme that helps in the formation of phenylalanine and is the cause of PKU.
- The phenylalanine amino acid must be converted into other chemicals the body need by help of this enzyme.
