People with lipidoses are born without the genetic codes needed to tell their bodies how to complete a particular part of the fat digestion process.
Some lipidoses disorders can be controlled with changes in the diet, medications, or enzyme supplements.

Genetic testing can be used, in some cases, to identify the defective gene causing lipidoses.
Some lipidoses disorders may cause death in childhood or contribute to a shortened life expectancy.
Some lipidoses disorders become apparent shortly after the infant is born; in others, symptoms may not develop until adulthood.
Lipidoses are heredity disorders, passed from parents to their children, characterized by defects of the digestive system that impair the way the body uses fat from the diet.
For most of the lipidoses, diagnosis is suspected based on the symptoms and family history.
