Prader-Willi syndrome is a rare genetic disorder, and one of its primary features is hyperphagia, an insatiable hunger that never goes away. This constant hunger can lead to serious health risks, impacting both the patient and their families. Caregivers often implement structured meals and lock away food to ensure safety. Understanding hyperphagia helps create a more informed, supportive community. Like and share this post to spread awareness! #PWSAwareness #RareDisease #Support4PWS

Hyperphagia, a primary feature of Prader-Willi syndrome, is defined by relentless hunger and it doesn’t just affect the individual; it affects the entire family. Parents constantly secure food and monitor meals, while siblings adapt to locked kitchens and strict routines. The stress is constant, and the emotional toll is heavy. Understanding hyperphagia is key to supporting those affected by PWS. Learn more at https://bit.ly/4ajzWsn #PWSAwareness #RareDisease #Support4PWS

In their words: “It removes any sense of independence for your child, for yourself, for your kids when they're living in your home. People living with PWS that have hyperphagia may impact the way the family can move around society; it's a self-imposed quarantine of sorts because you can't go anywhere without somebody having food.” - Kelly G., PWS Caregiver Share your story and join the resilient #PWS community at https://bit.ly/3V7DfNd #PWSAwareness #RareDisease #Support4PWS
