This is the most common form of GSD. People with type I don’t have the enzyme needed to turn glycogen into glucose in the liver. Glycogen builds up in the liver. Symptoms often appear in babies around 3 to 4 months old. They may include low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and a swollen belly because of an enlarged liver.

Type I or von Gierke disease.
