Which non nutritive artificial sweetener should be avoided by someone who has phenylketonuria (pku?)?

1 answer:

3 0

Aspartame is very high in the protein, phenylalanine

Individuals with PKU are unable to metabolize this protein from their bodies & it builds up in toxic levels. Anything containing artificial sweeteners, like aspartame, or are very high in phenylalanine should be avoided to minimize the chances of complications.

Hope that helps!
