What is PKU?
PKU (Phenylketonuria) is a rare, inherited metabolic disease that results in mental retardation and other neurological problems when treatment is not started within the first few weeks of life. When a very strict diet is begun early and well-maintained, affected children can expect normal development and a normal life.

If you're a new PKU Parent and would like to meet another family in your area that have children with PKU, or if you would simply like to join our support group, please fill out & submit this e-mail.
