Saturated fat can exacerbate the symptoms of adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) by increasing levels of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) in the body, which are already elevated due to the disorder. This accumulation can lead to further damage to the myelin sheath and worsen neurological symptoms. Individuals with ALD are often advised to limit saturated fat intake and focus on a diet rich in unsaturated fats to help manage VLCFA levels and support overall health.
