From Golden Standards to Individual Reality - Breaking Down Nutrition Management for GSDIa

• Elizabeth Toolan, MS, RD, LD - Washington University St. Louis - St. Louis, MO

As nutrition management of GSDIa continues to progress, existing guidelines remain dated, and treatment strategies vary. Although the GSDIa treatment plan requires a tailored approach,
the ultimate goals of therapy remain consistent - avoid hypoglycemia, ensure metabolic stability, meet nutritional requirements, and create a plan that accommodates the individual's lifestyle.

This presentation will take a realistic approach to assessing, planning, and monitoring the nutrition plan in various complex scenarios. The goal is to empower dietitians and boost their confidence when treating those with GSDIa. Time will be allocated for questions and to share experiences to further enrich our understanding of best practices for the treatment of GSDIa.
