Although there is no current treatment to correct the abnormal metabolic processes underlying this<unk> , there are approaches to ameliorate symptoms and decrease the effects of this<unk> . Because there is an increase of fat storage and a decrease in fat catabolism, low fat diets are recommended for slowing the progression of the<unk> , including the onset of type 2 diabetes and hypothyroidism. In addition, diets containing triglycerides composed of short chain fatty acids are more beneficial than TGAs containing long chain fatty acids. Ketone bodies can be rapidly transported, catabolized, and used by many tissues including the brain. Medium-chain fatty acids in an individual’s diet are rapidly used by the body, limiting storage and therefore alleviating<unk>  droplet accumulation. Foods with medium-chain fatty acids include dairy, fat and coconut oil. Supplements can also be taken to increase uptake of these fatty acids. Triaheptanoin, a triglyceride containing three seven-carbon chain fatty acids, has also been proposed as a possible dietary supplement. Treatment for the ichthyosis is limited; moisturizers are commonly used to help manage dry, flaky, itchy skin.
