Hi doc. What level is 7.22 u/ghb? My daughter is 5mos.and she's a g6pd deff.thanks
Dear Mary Ann Espinas, Normal range of G6PD activity is 10.15-14.71 U/g Hb for neonates and 6.75-11.95 U/g Hb for adults. In infants 1 to 12 months old, mean normal value is about 9.6 U/g Hb, and the upper limit of partial deficiency of G6pd is approximately 6 U/g Hb. Your baby G6pd level (7.22) is a bit greater than this so it's mild deficiency.
Thanks doc

Hello doctor, g6pd can they eat (almonds, hazzle nuts, peanuts, pestachio) ?
Hi doc,confirmatory result is 15.65 U/ghb and reference ranges is 16.22 is normal for 3weeks old baby girl?
What’s the reasoning behind the tall vs short containers?
It's Like there is no food that they can eat
Is quinoa ok for g6pd? What about chia seeds?
Dear UmmeYusuf,
'Chia seeds' (Salvia Hispanica) are the seeds of a flowering plant which originally belongs to the Mint (Menthol plant) family. As Mint is prohibited in G6PD so please also avoid Chia seeds.
'Quiona' is a flowering plant which belong to Amaranth family. As amaranth is allowed in G6PD so Quiona seeds can be eaten too.
Please see my 'Community Post' for Pics.
Which legumes they can eat? Yellow brown?
Sir, g6pd deficiency child can eat raisins.pls reply
i’m G6pd deficiency and i’ve been eating almsot %80 of all this food u included the only thing i don’t eat is fava bean
Hey bro my new born baby is screened with g6pd diff
Does it effect the brain development or any kind of negative impact on body
@@VinodKumar-yp8gd no, but you should take care of him or her especially while eating fava beans and thos type of food, because eating thos will case hemolytic anemia which is life threatening, and the possibility of hemolytic anemia is higher in children than adults, so the child only have problems till he or she grow old enough. me my self i ate fava beans like low amounts a couple month ago by accident and i didn’t have problems.
@@divusm my son is 5days old and now his g6pd is around 3.02 and does it goes down further when he is growing and become an adult and is there any chance of getting chronic issues related to heart, kidney and liver and as its linked to glucose metabolism does the chance of getting diabetic will increase in any senses
Just incase he eats the prohibited foods the impact is immediate or you can see some sign prior and take sometime to effect
And how about the infection, r they eassy get effected
@@VinodKumar-yp8gd i don’t think so, i’m a dentist, i’ve spent alot of time with doctors, i’ve redden alot about G6pd deficiency and met alot of people with g6pd deficiency and never saw anyone with any particular disease that caused by g6pd deficiency , the only problem u can get from g6pd is hemolytic anemia and the main thing that is causing it is fava beans ( especially in spring season eating fresh fava bean or even staying in a fava bean farm might cause hemolytic anemia ) and couple type of drugs (NSAIDs, aspirin, quinolones, nitrofurantoin, antimalaria drugs ) should be avoided, and about the test u took the g6pd test is not true most of time if i’m not wrong, you should not be worried only be careful what kind of drug ur child is taking and what kind of food he is eating.
@@divusm thank you so much budd u made my heart light right now :) btw mentioned levels r too low according to you?
From what I understand is that g6pd has a issue recycling vitamin k is this true? Also would that mean a carnivore diet would be better for most people suffering from this disease?
Dr. Can i give my baby dry fruits powder?
Hello dr. Kya m apne baby ko mung daal de. Sakti hun ki nai nd kon si daal ovoid karni h please suggest me
Dear Nisha Gurung,
Legumes are edible plants that grow in pods, and pulses are edible seeds inside those pods that have been harvested and dried for you to eat. Fava beans belong to the legume family which must be avoided in G6PD deficiency.
It has also been advised that all legumes (such as peas, lentils (pulses), or peanuts) be avoided for those suffering from this condition. Although this has not been scientifically proven.
I am a G6-PD patient. What do you mean by high doses of artificial Vit K? I am 76 and I have ostioporosis and I need to take Vit. K2 ; and what do you mean by Wax fruits and vegetable? Oh and if the processed fruit Jam is Organic is it OK? Thankyou.
I am waiting for your explanations

Thank u sir
@@aminazahran882😊 I am Miss not Sir
Sir, urdu dal or black gram , taur dal, and chana dal can eat g6pd children. Pls, waiting 4 ur reply sir.
Dear Amina Zahran, these belong to legumes family which are generally advised to be avoided in G6PD deficiency. But as I mentioned before, this has yet not scientifically proven to avoid every type of legumes except fava beans, peanuts, and red beans etc. It also depends on the severity of deficiency. So you must follow your doctor's advice before strictly avoiding any food.

whats wrong with store bought jam?
Dear David Graham, store bought jams contain certain chemicals and preservatives which may cause oxidant injury in individuals with G6pd deficiency depending upon their disease severity. So it's better to use home made jams, which are more tasty and nutritious.
G6pd deficient can eat egg , water melon, pineapple. Pls reply sir

Dear Rupam Roy, your bilirubin is high and you also have jaundice. There is some hemolysis going on. So please take caution in consuming prohibited drugs and foods. And also consult a physician. I can't suggest your G6pd levels on basis of Hb and bilirubin levels. So please see your doctor.
@@DRANJUMRASHID ok thank you for your reply.

Dear Ruthcel Waloc, Durian fruit is not cultured here in our region. Nor I have found its good or bad effect in any medical literature yet. It's better to ask your local doctors about this because they must have better knowledge about this fruit.
Kya iski range me improvement hota h .
mere baby me 4.8 h
Dear Deepika, g6pd is a lifelong genetic disorder. But most people have no symptoms and they live a normal life as long as they avoid the trigger. Just consult your baby doctor for the specific list of foods and drugs to be avoided. Only he can provide the best advice for your baby as he has examined the baby. Keep good follow ups. May God bless your baby with good healthy happy and successful life.
Ma'am g6pd deficiency lifelong to rahegi.. pr abhi mere baby me 4.8 h to aage 5 ya 6 ese increase ho skta h kya ? Thodi kam ho jae mild ho jae..?
Yes dear, if you avoid the trigger it will improve and there will be no problem. But have follow ups at intervals advised by your doctor.
@@DRANJUMRASHID thankyou so much dear Dr
Is it true that grapes and chocolate (since it’s made of cocoa beans) is not allowed for G6pd?

Can G6pd deficient babies eat eggs?
Only white part
are you a filipino?
translate this if u dont understand
for filipino`s language: ang talong po ba bawal po kainin ng g6pd ang sakit ko po rin eh g6pd rin po
for american` language: Is eggplant forbidden by g6pd to eat my disease is also g6pd
Dear Gian Angelo Gonzales,
Prevention is better than cure. Although, it depends on the severity of the deficiency, but it's better to avoid egg plant (bringal). Some people with mild deficiency, may tolerate some of these listed food items. But still, I suggest not to eat it. There are so many other tasty fruits and veggies which you can eat. My best wishes for your health and happiness.
Ang hirap din ng may ganitong kondisyon. Ni hindi rin pala pwede ang mga fast foods. (It is really hard to have this cindition. That even fast foods are prohibited to them. ) Madam... May ask some questtion. My son also have this dificiency. Through new born screening i knew it, but I never knew that there is something that we can call it as LEVEL of this.. Now... how will I know what level of this dificiency my son have? My son is now 12 years old. Salamat po 😊
This is why i hate having g6pd, many foods are not allowed in my body, if I wish there was a cure to this kind of condition, I will be free to eat the foods that I wanted, this is just sad
Dear Zhardon Rob Julze, Please don't get sad on God's decision. Sometimes we are given some others blessing which others don't have. May God bless you and your family.
@@DRANJUMRASHID is g6pd permanent or g6pd can go by its own by making our immune system strong? I just wanted to be free to eat all the foods, and what's wrong from eating a burger or french fries?
@@DRANJUMRASHID pls answer
Dear, I am sorry to say, there is no cure for G6PD deficiency, and it is a lifelong condition. However, most people with G6PD deficiency have a completely normal life as long as they avoid the triggers.
Yes you can eat home made French fries and Burgers. They are more hygienic and tasty. Prepare your own tomato sauce at home. Cooking is fun. Please don't be sad... live life as normal.
Level of g6pd is 6.91 out of 20.5.is this normal or not?
Dear Nav Dhot, Normal range of G6PD activity is 10.15 - 14.71 U/g Hb for neonates and 6.75 - 11.95 U/g Hb for adults.
Less than 60% of normal is mild deficiency and less than 10% of normal is severe deficiency. Yours is 6.91, if it is newborn than its about 68% of normal which means no or very mild deficiency. Infant should be followed up.
I am 27 years old and i m suffering from jaundice past nine months and my g6pd level is 6.91 out of 20.5 as read on report.my bilirubin level is always stands between 2to 4 .I have taken several medications but couldn’t get any positive results.plz plz suggest me something how to increase it and relief from jaundice.is this normal range for me
Dear Nav Dhot, I realize your worries, but without examination and reviewing all other reports, it's not appropriate to diagnose a condition and suggest any treatment. I suggest you should consult a specialist, and please don't take over the counter medicines
so I can't eat anything....great
Your not alone either 🙂
Toh phir insaan khayega kya woh bhi bata dijiye..aise toh jeena mushkil ho jayega😅
Also say don't drink water
Thanks Dr 👌 😊. Read the Bible. Eccl.12:13,14 "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." Judgment Day 2011 to 2033.
So nice 🌹💖❤
