8 COMIDA PKU All products are based on phenylalanine-free mixtures of pure L-amino acids of pharmaceutical quality, supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare inborn error of the metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine (PHE). Individuals with PKU have a defect of the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), which is responsible for the degradation of the amino acid PHE. This condition, if untreated, results in brain damage and severe mental retardation. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Many of the products come in single-serving pouches Also available in capsules for people aged 15 and over Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Available in a wide range of delicious flavours Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range PKU: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year) comida-pku A formula comida-pku A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years) comida-pku B formula (available also with flavour: Chocolate, Cream-Caramel, Cream Orange-Lemon, Strawberry) comida-pku B (available also with flavour: Piña Colada) Stage C: for adolescents, adults and pregnant women comida-pku C formula (available also with flavour: Fresh Orange-Lemon) comida-pku C (available also with flavour: Piña Colada) PKU C Capsules COMIDA MSUD All products are based on leucine-, isoleucine- and valine-free mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) is a rare inborn error of the metabolism of the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine, due to the deficiency of the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex. This leads to an accumulation of these amino acids and their by-products (ketoacids). It is one type of organic acidemias. If not treated, this condition results in severe irreversible neurological damages. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range MSUD: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-msud A formula comida-msud A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-msud B comida-msud B formula Stage C: for adolescents, adults and pregnant women comida-msud C formula 8

9 COMIDA UrC All products are based on mixtures of pure L-amino acids, including cysteine and tyrosine, and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Urea Cycle Disorders are a series of inborn errors of metabolism related to deficiencies of different enzymes involved in the urea cycle. The urea cycle is responsible for detoxification and excretion of ammonia released during protein catabolism, by converting it to non-toxic urea. If not treated, such disorders will lead to accumulation of ammonia and other precursor metabolites, which are neurotoxic. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range UrC: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-urc A formula comida-urc A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-urc B comida-urc B formula COMIDA HCys All products are based on methionine -free mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Homocystinuria is a rare inborn error of metabolism of the amino acid methionine, caused by deficiencies of different enzymes involved in the metabolism of methionine. If not treated, it will lead to an accumulation of homocysteine and its metabolites in blood and urine. Without treatment, this condition can result in failure to thrive, visual problems, thrombosis and mental retardation. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range HCys: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-hcys A formula LCP comida-hcys A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-hcys B formula comida-hcys B Stage C: for adolescents, adults and pregnant women comida-hcys C formula

10 COMIDA OAc All products are based on methionine-, valine-, threonine- and isoleucine-free mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Organic Acidemias/Acidurias are inborn errors of metabolism characterized by the excretion of organic acids in urine. The most common disorders are caused by abnormal amino acid catabolism of the amino acids valine, isoleucin, threonine and methionine and are called propionic acidemia (PA) and methylmalonic aciduria (MMA). Enzyme defects in the degradation of propionyl-coa or methymalonyl-coa lead to accumulation of these metabolites. The severity of symptoms varies widely, ranging from mild neurological disturbances to metabolic crisis. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range OAc: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-oac A formula comida-oac A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-oac B formula comida-oac B COMIDA TYRo All products are based on tyrosine- and phenylalanine -free mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Tyrosinemia is a rare inborn error of metabolism of the amino acid tyrosine. There are several types of Tyrosinemia, caused by different enzyme defects. If not treated, this condition leads to an accumulation of tyrosine and toxic metabolites. Symptoms in untreated patients include severe liver and kidney damages as well as mental retardation. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range TYRo: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-tyro A formula comida-tyro A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-tyro B formula comida-tyro B 10

11 COMIDA GAc All products are based on lysine-free, low in tryptophan mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Glutaric Aciduria Type 1 is a rare inborn error of metabolism of protein metabolism, caused by a defect of the enzyme glutaryl-coa dehydrogenase, which is responsible for the degradation of the amino acids lysine, hydroxylysine and tryptophan. The consequence is an accumulation of their metabolites and as consequence severe neurological damage if untreated. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell - Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range GAc: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-gac A formula comida-gac A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-gac B formula comida-gac B COMIDA Leu All products are based on leucin-free mixtures of pure L-amino acids and are supplemented with micronutrients following international recommendations. Background: Isovaleric acidemia is a rare inborn error of metabolism, caused by a deficiency of the enzyme isovaleryl-coa-dehydrogenase and comes along with an accumulation of the amino acid leucine. Consequentely isovaleric acid and related compounds build up to toxic levels, damaging the brain and nervous system. Practical for everyday use: Highly soluble thanks to its ultra-fine powder form Easy to calculate and prepare Delicious: Extremely delicate, neutral taste and smell Separate flavour pouches provide additional flavours The advantages of a formula product: Comida formula provides additional nutritional value, chiefly in the form of carbohydrates and partly fat Contains linoleic acid and α-linolenic acid Product range Leu: Stage A: for infants (0-1 year): comida-leu A formula comida-leu A Stage B: for toddlers and children (1 to 14 years): comida-leu B formula comida-leu B
