Following a successful start at ESPKU 2025, we are continuing our initiative on nutritional education in PKU. The kick‑off event already attracted interest among the participants — thanks in large part to the inspiring contributions of our three speakers Tina Eisenblätter (Diplom‑Psychologist), Vanessa Korpel (Dietitian) and Elias Hoffjann (Dietitian).

The focus was on how children with PKU can be supported in everyday life:
What role do rituals play? How can parents manage dietary guidelines with loving consistency? And how can families empower their children without overwhelming them?

We would now like to build directly on these valuable insights and are therefore offering, for the first time, a webinar specifically for parents of children with PKU.

Webinar: Nutritional Education in PKU – For Parents
Date: February 23, 2026
Time: 7:30 – 8:30 p.m.
Location: Online via Microsoft Teams

The event addresses typical everyday situations in families and provides practical solution‑oriented approaches. Diplom‑Psychologist Tina Eisenblätter will share her expertise from working with families and will cover topics such as setting boundaries, fostering self‑efficacy, emotional aspects of eating, and handling challenging situations (e.g., refusal of the amino acid mixture).

There will also be plenty of space for questions, exchange, and concrete examples from family life.

With this new format, we aim to support parents, provide guidance, and help ease the daily challenges of PKU‑related nutrition.
