Description
APROTEN's low-protein pasta is characterized by its low content of proteins, sodium, phosphorus, and potassium, making it suitable for the dietary management of renal failure (nephropathies); its low content of tyrosine and phenylalanine makes it suitable for the dietary management of metabolic aminoacidopathies (phenylketonuria, tyrosinemia); and its low protein content makes it suitable for the dietary management of Parkinson's disease (under Levodopa therapy). For patients undergoing Levodopa therapy, the degree of potential dysphagia and any issues of malnutrition due to deficiency that may arise from protein restriction should be evaluated.
