I am requesting to the FDA that Phenylalanine information needs to be printed onto the Nutrition Facts on all packaged foods. The reason I feel the necessity for this information on food packages is, my son was diagnosed with Phenylketonuria (PKU) which has made me acutely aware of the difficulties encountered by all PKU patients and parents of children diagnosed. Like most people I had no idea what the disease even was. The body produces amounts of phenylalanine (phe), which is amino-acid found in protein. With both the body producing phe and the intake of protein/phe is too much for their bodies. Which can result in a build-up of phe deposits causing seizures, learning disabilities and mental retardation and all are irreversible. A PKU patient’s life is extremely difficult to manage and if the information was provided in the food’s package this information would help to alleviate some of the difficulty involved with managing the diet.
