Walking Program in Fatty Liver Children With Phenylketonuria: Response of Liver Enzymes

phenylketonuria (commonly known as PKU) is an inherited disorder that increases the levels of a substance called phenylalanine in the blood. PKU is usually associated with many metabolic complication including non-alcoholic fatty liver
