Conditions We Identify

A rare, inherited, progressive disorder where a fat called globotriasylcermide builds up in the cells, causing intense pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, fatigue and other symptoms.

A deficiency of the enzyme beta-glucosidase, which breaks down a specific fatty substance, allowing it to accumulate in the body, resulting in anemia, low platelet count, etc.
