PKU (phenylketonuria) is a genetic condition that causes a deficiency in the enzyme needed to break down phenylalanine. As a result, people with PKU must limit their intake of phenylalanine, which is found in many protein-containing foods. Amino acid toxicity syndrome is not a known medical condition. IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) and cystic fibrosis are unrelated conditions.
