InLorenzo's oil lorenzo is put on a diet free from long chain saturated fats. Even though he?

I love that movie!!!!

I think the diet was failing because it was just adding more fatty acids into his body. You see, Lorenzo's brain was built up with fatty acids surrounding the myelin sheath that was protesting the nerves, the fatty acids was not breaking down and when the doctors put him on the diet, it was just adding more fatty acids into his body which was causing more buildup. The only thing to do was take him off the diet.

Hope this helped and I hope you enjoyed the movie. :-)
