Can Batwoman handle the Great Protein Challenge? The true Superheros are the PKU and other rare IEM individuals that everyday manage a strict low protein diet to protect their brain and health.
Metabolic Dietary Disorders Association
The Great Protein Challenge aims to encourage everyday Australians to experience a typical day in the life of a person/family member living with PKU.

Did you know, 10 grams of Protein is MORE than double the amount a classic PKU individual can tolerate in a day. With no known cure a strict and vastly limited diet is the only way to manage the disease to avoid irreversible brain damage.
Take on the challenge this May to walk in the shoes of a PKU person for just 1 day! Sign up now!

There is still plenty of time to take part in The Great Protein Challenge 2022! Unfortunately, this steak won’t be on the menu! 200 grams has 62 grams of protein! 😲 Most people who have a protein IEM can only consume 1-8 grams of protein a day.

Day 3 done and dusted!
Finished on 9.5 grams of protein for the day. And by far the butter chicken (without the chicken) was my absolute fav meal of the 3 days!
Good luck to everyone else doing the challenge. 🙏🏼
Goodness me that was tough! I didn’t feel full much over the 3 days. (Except tonight’s meal) And felt a bit foggy and flat. That’s me going from 143 grams of protein a day (requested from my trainer) to less then 10! Really opens up your eyes in a new light, not just doing it for my daughter but walking in her shoes. I’m glad I did it. And I’m so thankful for the support and sponsors to “making some noise” still hoping to reach my target 🙌🏻🙌🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Everything crossed my daughter responds to kuvan when we trial it, and it’s accessible to ALL ages!!
🙏🏼🤍✨
