After The Liver Enzyme Test The GGT Was 120, What Does The Result Suggest?

hello Dr.
Yesterday, i had a liver enzyme test done in the morning. My GGT was 120. On the 3rd of january it was 90. I have another one scheduled tomorrow around noon and i need for it to be under 75. Is this possible and is there any vitamins or supplements to expedite the process. Thank you.

Hi & Welcome.
Incomplete data like any history of alcohol intake, details of other liver function tests, any medical illness.

The raised GGT level is suggestive of liver disease caused by alcohol intake.
To reduce the level of GGT, you must;

1. Avoid alcohol or alcohol containing beverages forever,
2. Avoid fatty meals, fast n junk foods
3. Eat home cooked healthy diet
4. Increase intake of fruits and vegetables
5. Vitamin E containing supplements are proved to be effective in patients with raised liver enzymes like GGT.

Hope I could answer your query.
Best regards.
