Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES I Assess the biosynthesis of cholesterol and cholestanol and measure the turnover of individual sterols and bile acids in patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis before and after a cholesterol- and cholestanol-free diet

II Assess the biosynthesis of cholesterol and cholestanol and measure the turnover of individual sterols and bile acids in these patients before and after lovastatin and chenodeoxycholic acid
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE Following a 2-week baseline assessment patients participate in a feeding study for up to 3 weeks The diet is free of cholesterol and cholestanol

For the next 4 weeks patients return to their typical diet and are medicated with daily lovastatin and chenodeoxycholic acid
