Comparative Analysis of Dietary Patterns in Children With Phenylketonuria Phenotypes and Controls: Implications for Nutritional Status
, linoleic acid, α-linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and docosahexaenoic acid, and with lower levels of total cholesterol and HDL-C compared to the normal-protein diet group. In conclusion, children with PKU, particularly those with classical PKU following low-protein diets, showed higher carbohydrate intake and distinct micronutrient and lipid profiles compared with healthy controls.
