What is another word for Galactokinase Deficiency Diseases?
Pronunciation: [ɡˈalɐktˌɒkɪnˌe͡ɪs dɪfˈɪʃənsi dɪzˈiːzɪz] (IPA) 
Galactokinase deficiency diseases refer to a group of rare genetic disorders that affect the body's ability to process galactose, a sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Patients with galactokinase deficiency are unable to produce enough of the enzyme galactokinase, which is necessary for the breakdown of galactose. This leads to the accumulation of galactose in various tissues of the body, causing a range of symptoms including liver damage, cataracts, and intellectual disabilities. Synonyms for galactokinase deficiency diseases include galactokinase deficiency syndrome, galactosemia type 2, and galactosemia II. Early diagnosis and dietary management are crucial in preventing complications associated with these conditions.
