Kishnani PS, Steiner RD, Bali D, et al. Pompe disease diagnosis and
management guidelines. Genet Med 2006; 8:267-88.
NUTRITION ISSUES IN POMPE
Weight Loss
Modify
food/beverage
consistency
Formula
supplements
Tube feedings
Small, frequent
meals
Weight Gain
Decreased activity
Calorie
requirements may
be decreased

NUTRITION ISSUES IN POMPE
Osteoporosis
Chronic limited mobility and weakness
Poor nutrition
Not well understood in Pompe
Optimize nutrition for bone health
Meet calcium and vitamin D requirements
May require additional supplementation
Citracal, Viactiv, Caltrate
Vitamin D supplementation, monitoring blood levels
THE ROLE OF A HIGH PROTEIN DIET
Slonim AE, Bulone L, Slonim E, Goldberg T, MinikesJ,
Galanko J, Martiniuk F. AdultAcid Maltase Deficiency:
Modification of natural history by Nutrition & Exercise
Therapy. Muscle and Nerve 2007; 35: 70 -77.
34 patients treated with nutrition and exercise therapy
(NET) for periods of 2-10 years
High protein, low carbohydrate diet with L-Alanine
supplementation
Aerobic exercise
Concluded NET compliance can slow deterioration of
muscle function, improve natural history of adult -onset
Pompe Disease
