hello thank you for posting your query i HCM.
higher values of GGT,AST,ALT are suggestive of liver cell pathology , seen in conditions like fatty liver, hepatitis, cirrhosis, drug induced toxicity.
these levels can be brought down by a healthy and balanced diet and regular physical activity. avoid alcohol and quit from smoking. have complex carbohydrates like oats, brown rice, brown bread., high proteins like egg white, sprouts, soy beans, all kinds pulses, more vegetables, more fruits, low fatty foods. Plenty of water minimum 3 litres per day. Go for cardio exercises like brisk walking, running, swimming for 45 min a day,6 times a week, add strength training to it 4 times a week. Keep blood sugar levels under control if you have diabetes. Avoid junk foods, deep fried foods, white rice, white sugar.
