May 22/ Day 22

‪#‎pkuphotoaday‬ ‪#‎pku‬ ‪#‎phenylketonuria‬ ‪#‎pkuawarenessmonth‬ May 22 / day 22 New treatments All of my life I have drank a special medical formula . It is full of amino acids nutrients vitamins and minerals . As well as protein with out phenylalanine .

Formula has come such a long way in my lifetime . When i was young my formula was made from potaote starch . It was very chalky and tastes awful . I remember my mom counting it out by scoops into the blender . It had to be pre made each night. And we flavored it with strawberry quick. It had to be stored and drank cold. I used a straw since it was so thick . It separated quickly too. Now a days we have soo many new formulas that are much more advance . For the past few years I have been drinking better milk . It is by far the best formula I have ever had . It has a creamy texture with no after taste and it is made with a whey protein and glyticin. It’s really good for digestion and helps keep me full. I flavor my bettermilk with mio! 2015-05-28 11.19.41
