Vitaflos PKU Guide helps to explain the diagnosis and dietary management of the genetic condition Phenylketonuria (PKU) to new parents, as well as family members and carers who may be involved in the day-to-day care of the child.

This narrated guide has been written in partnership with UK and Ireland specialist healthcare professionals and clearly explains:

• what PKU is
• why a child is born with the condition
• how it is diagnosed
• dietary management from birth, through weaning to adolescence and adulthood

This is also a useful tool for parents/carers to use when explaining to grandparents, friends or school teachers who will be involved in the care of a child with PKU or the preparation of their meals.
