The decision to continue treatment for phenylketonuria (PKU) patients into adolescence and adulthood presents a challenge to nutritionists and other professionals who must motivate patients to maintain the diet and give them support. Nutrition needs must be assessed and then met by commercial low-phenylalanine formula and low-protein foods, while at the same time the amount of phenylalanine in the diet is severely limited. Combinations of products can be used to tailor the diet to individual needs, e.g., weight reduction. The objective is to allow the intellectually normal PKU patient to develop as socially normal a life-style as possible.
决定将苯丙酮尿症（PKU）患者的治疗持续到青春期及成年期，这对营养学家和其他专业人员构成了挑战，他们必须激励患者坚持饮食并给予支持。必须评估营养需求，然后通过商业低苯丙氨酸配方奶粉和低蛋白食物来满足，同时饮食中苯丙氨酸的量受到严格限制。可以使用产品组合来根据个人需求调整饮食，例如减重。目标是让智力正常的PKU患者尽可能过上社会正常的生活方式。
