ABOUT
This website is provided by the Mikaere Foundation, a charity for children with NKH.
We want to provide the best information for families affected by Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia (NKH). That’s why we ask those living with NKH, their families and medical experts to help us put our resources together. It’s also why we are accredited by the Patient Information Forum.

Always get individual advice
This website contains general information about Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia (NKH). But, if you, or a family member has a problem, you should get individual advice from a medical professional. We work very hard to give you the latest facts, but some things change, and we don’t control the information provided by other organisations or websites.
How did we do?
