What sugars should be avoided by people with pku?

People with phenylketonuria (PKU) should avoid foods containing phenylalanine, an amino acid found in high-protein foods and certain artificial sweeteners like Aspartame. They should also limit or avoid sugars that may be present in processed foods and beverages, particularly those sweetened with aspartame. Instead, they can use sugar substitutes that do not contain phenylalanine, such as sucralose or stevia. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized dietary advice.
