Lorenzos Oil
ALD(Adrenoleukodystrophy) is a rare inherited metabolic disease. ... This disease can be prevented with a combined approach of oleic acid which is Lorenzos Oil and a restricted diet minus very long fatty acids. ... There can be normal functions for those individuals who take the prescribed dose of oil and follow the restricted diet regimen. ...
Lorenzos Oil is the most well known treatment of ALD, but it is not perfect. Although it was able to bring Lorenzos VLCSFA levels down, there seems to be evidence indicating that it is not capable of stopping the progression of ALD once the disease has begun. ... Studies show that Lorenzos Oil works best as a preventative measure; one done by HW Moser indicates that if Lorenzos Oil is administered before onset, the symptoms are greatly reduced or erased all together
