Don't worry, we just need to adjust it slightly. Just add about 250 calories to your current daily calorie intake (so if you were just eating 2500 calories per day, you'd now eat 2750 calories per day) and then monitor what your weight does over the next couple of weeks.
TEXT. A number sign (#) is used with this entry because classic galactosemia is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase gene (GALT; 606999) on chromosome 9p13.Description.EXT. A number sign (#) is used with this entry because classic galactosemia is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase gene (GALT; 606999) on chromosome 9p13.
Galactosemia is a rare genetic disorder that causes an inability to digest galactose, which is a breakdown product of lactose.Lactose is one of the main carbohydrates in milk.ne of the enzymes involved is galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) and in galactosemia, this enzyme is either defective or missing. When this happens, an infant is unable to convert the galactose into glucose which causes galactose to accumulate in the blood.
