INTRODUCTION Table 1. Preparation of Glutarex® Medical Food FOOD GUIDE FOR GA-1 Step Instructions This guide for Glutaric Aciduria Type 1 (GA-1) and lysine 1 Mix a 24-hour supply of Glutarex all at once (LYS)- and tryptophan (TRP)-restricted meal plans identifies or in individual servings as instructed by your the amount and type of food permitted each day and can make metabolic dietitian. checking and balancing meals much easier.

When protein is digested, LYS and TRP are split off and absorbed for use in the body. 4 Use medical food within 24 hours after mixing. When LYS and TRP are split off from protein during digestion, For an infant, Glutarex-1 mixture stored in people with GA1 cannot handle the LYS and TRP coming 5 bottles in the refrigerator may be warmed from digested protein in a normal way and symptoms result. before feeding. Do not heat mixture above 100°F These include vomiting, metabolic acidosis (acid in the blood), (37.8°C) or add hot water. Heat can cause degenerative or permanent brain injury, and weakness. Limiting vitamin loss. protein intake reduces LYS and TRP intake so there is less chance LYS and TRP will build up in the body. 6 For a toddler or an older child/adult, Glutarex-2 Normal growth and development depend on protein. However, mixture may be consumed plain, chilled, or people with GA-1 who eat enough protein to meet their needs flavored. Recipes for flavoring Glutarex-2 are get too much LYS and TRP. To get enough protein and not get found in the GA-1 family guide and on pages 70-71 too much LYS and TRP, a special medical food that is high in of this guide. ® protein and free of LYS and TRP is necessary. Glutarex -1 and ® Glutarex -2 provide protein (without LYS and TRP), energy, vitamins, and minerals. Table 1 lists the steps for preparing Glutarex. Glutarex-1 and Glutarex-2 are to be used under the supervision of a doctor. 4 5

The zero or “0” is a rounded figure, and the product may contain up to 0.49 gram of protein per serving. Check with your dietitian or look to see if any of the ingredients may contain LYS and TRP. • For greatest accuracy, weigh foods on a scale that reads in grams. If a scale is not available, use approved measuring cups and spoons for measuring portion sizes. Table 2 lists equivalent measurements, and Table 3 provides metric conversion factors. Ask your metabolic doctor or dietitian which is best for your child. 6 7
Table 3. Metric Conversion Factors FOOD LISTS Multiply the item in column 1 by the number indicated to A metabolic dietitian and team of health care providers will calculate the equivalent amount in column 2. provide a detailed meal plan for the amount of LYS, TRP, and protein your child should eat daily. The food lists on the Example: 5 fluid ounces x 30 = 150 grams following pages will help you choose foods to manage your Column 1 multiply by Column 2 child’s GA-1 diet. Each list is divided into groups with serving sizes that have similar amounts of LYS and TRP: breads/cereals, fluid ounces (fl oz) x 30 = grams (g) fruits, vegetables, fats, free foods A, and free foods B. Check with ounces (dry) (oz) x 28 = grams (g) your dietitian before eating any food that is not listed. grams (g) x 0.035 = ounces (oz) When your child is young and has a small appetite, it is some- grams (g) x 0.0022 = pounds (lb) times tempting to offer foods that are higher in LYS and TRP to meet his or her needs. Your child may learn to like these kilograms (kg) x 2.2 = pounds (lb) foods that are higher in LYS and TRP, and it becomes difÏcult pounds (lb) x 454 = grams (g) to restrict these foods as his/her appetite increases. As a child grows older, free foods high in energy that contain little or no pounds (lb) x 0.454 = kilograms (kg) LYS and TRP may be added to the meal plan to meet energy quarts (qt) x 0.95 = liters (L) needs. Remember, however, that too many free foods can cause obesity or tooth decay. liters (L) x 1.05 = quarts (qt) gallons (gal) x 3.79 = liters (L) To convert from metric (column 2) to the English system (column 1), divide the item in column 2 by the number to calculate the equivalent in column 1. 8 9
