Long-Chain 3 Hydroxyacyl CoA Dehydrogense (LCHAD) is a genetic defect that makes it impossible to metabolize Long Chain Fatty Acids.  If untreated, fatty acids build up to a toxic level and can become fatal.  Fortunately, if treated by a medical professional that specializes in metabolic disorders LCHAD is almost always manageable.

Lchad.com will follow the progress of several people with LCHAD, provide clinical information about this inherited inborn error of metabolism, maintain an up to date list of current research/studies, and provide a list of specialists who are known around the country for their exceptional ability to treat LCHAD.

I'm taking a web development class now and had to create a site for the final.  I went on and used this site after making a few minor changes to meet the requirements of the final.  While I was at it I updated Zack's page.  Take care until next time.

I've made some nice updates to the content of the site.  Make sure you stop by Zack's and Samantha's profiles.  Also, an LCHAD parent from Australia sent me some wonderful low fat recipes so make sure you take a look at them while your here.
