What is Galactosemia?
Galactosemia is a rare genetic disorder where the body cannot properly process galactose, a sugar found in milk and other foods, due to an enzyme deficiency. It affects approximately 1 in 30,000 to 60,000 newborns worldwide, making it a rare but significant genetic disorder.
Why A Podcast?
Our son, Elliot, was born with Classic Galactosemia in August of 2024. As new parents, we began the journey of consuming as much information about CG as possible. As an obsessive dad, I wanted to talk to anyone I could that had information about or experience with the disease. I quickly learned that there is a small, yet very mighty, community around those affected by galactosemia. This podcast serves as a place where questions are explored and knowledge is shared. It is our way of fostering understanding, sharing hope, and building a stronger community for those affected by galactosemia.
