The dietary management of phenylketonuria
… wider understanding of the impact of each of the dietary components on blood phenylalanine concentrations in PKU may lead to improvements in management. Knowledge of the effects of such rigorous diet therapy on feeding behaviour is also important. In a series of studies, the effect of a number of …

Absorption of Dietary Titanium Dioxide
Food grade Titanium dioxide (fgTiO2) is used as a colouring additive in the food industry, and it is present in food, capsules, and toothpaste. We are exposed to a median of 2.5 mg fgTiO2 per day in the UK through such sources. These are persistent micro and nanoparticles that have been reported in …
