Long-term dietary management of Propionic acidemia (PA) includes natural protein restriction, and supplementation with medical formula enriched with leucine (Leu) and free of valine (Val), isoleucine (Ileu), methionine (Met), and threonine (Thr). As PA medical formulas have high leucine content, concerns started to arise regarding potential long-term health risks of unbalanced leucine intake. PA patients have chronically low plasma levels of Ile and Val, which led to the paradoxical need to supplement with propiogenic single amino acids (AAs). Our report takes a retrospective look at the long-term dietary management of four patients and its reflection on their plasma amino acids. The patients' total protein intake was above the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) and had a high Leu/Val and Leu/Ile intake ratios in diet. Despite adequate total protein intake, patients had chronically low plasma Ile and Val and a high plasma Leu/Val and Leu/Ile ratios, which could be attributed to high Leu intake. We conclude that the best approach to PA dietary management is to only use medical formula with patients not meeting their RDA through natural protein, and to monitor plasma amino acids levels closely.
