PKU GOLIKE: the evolution in the nutritional management for Phenylketonuria
PKU GOLIKE is a brand-new product line of food for special medical purposes (FSMP) for a real change in the dietary management of
Phenylketonuria (PKU)
PKU GOLIKE consists in a Phe-free amino acid mix in coated granules, developed by applying a patented pharmaceutical technology, the
Physiomimic Technology™, to an FSMP.
With the ambition of improving health and quality of life of people living and dealing with PKU the coated granules provide
PKU GOLIKE with unique benefits:
The innovation and benefits of PKU GOLIKE products lie in the granule formulation, which is the basis of all the options in the PKU GOLIKE family.
The granules make PKU GOLIKE different from all other PKU products, which generally dissolve in water.
It can take time to get used to a different format and texture, but it is right because granules remain intact during consumption that you don’t perceive the amino acid taste, odour or aftertaste. Granules break down gradually only during digestion allowing a prolonged release of amino acids and a more physiological absorption in line with natural proteins.1,2
