With diet restricted for protein, can MMA kids lead a normal life?
Yes. Other than diet, there are no restrictions on physical activity and many of these children attend regular school. Exercise intolerance is a reality for some, however. In general, these children happily act and appear normal. Some children require help with their feeds during school or focused instruction to help them catch up if they have developmental delays. MMA kids can and do lead normal lives, but caregivers need to be extremely careful when the child is sick.
