Abstract

Non-Pharma Intervention and Dietary Status in Prader-Willi Disorder

Ajay Jerk

Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a complex genetic disorder characterized by hyperphagia and a propensity towards obesity. Managing the dietary status of individuals with PWS is challenging due to their insatiable appetite and metabolic abnormalities. While pharmacological interventions are sometimes employed, non-pharmacological approaches also play a crucial role. This study aims to explore the impact of non-pharmacological interventions on the dietary status of patients with PWS. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature, various non-pharmacological strategies including dietary restrictions, behavioral interventions, and environmental modifications will be evaluated for their effectiveness in managing hyperphagia and improving dietary habits in individuals with PWS. Additionally, the potential benefits and challenges associated with these interventions will be discussed. Understanding the efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions is vital for developing comprehensive treatment plans tailored to the unique needs of individuals with PWS, ultimately improving their dietary status and overall quality of life.
