Children with tyrosinemia received therapeutic nutrition 💚

Tyrosine, one of the substances that proteins are made of, enters the body of any person with food. Most people have an enzyme that breaks down tyrosine. But in people with tyrosinemia, this enzyme does not work well, and then too much tyrosine and metabolic waste products accumulate in the body. These toxic substances attack the liver, kidneys, and nervous system. Currently, five children with tyrosinemia need specialized nutrition. Their families cannot afford to buy it themselves, because one package of such nutrition costs more than 36 thousand rubles. Help the children return to normal life and enjoy childhood again!
