Abstract

Phenylketonuria is an inherited metabolic disease that requires nutritional treatment for life, which aims to keep blood levels of PHE low to avoid neurological damage but must also provide an adequate supply of protein and energy, as well as maintain an adequate nutritional state from the moment of diagnosis (López-Mejía, Vergara-Vázquez & Guillén-López, 2019). Due to this, the aim of this bibliographic review is to show the nutritional treatment offered to pediatric patients with PKU according to recent data on the subject.
