Hello,
Raised SGPT is seen in fatty liver disease or alcoholics or excessive exercise also can elevate SGPT levels.
Diet modification are:
1. Get more vitamin D. A damaged liver allows SGPT to seep into the blood. According to a recent study, vitamin D prevents liver damage, which aids in reducing SGPT levels – those with high levels of vitamin D are less vulnerable to liver disease than those with low levels of vitamin D.
2. Eat a nutrient-rich, plant-based diet. Eating organic foods help regulate the liver, allowing it to cleanse itself of toxins and create new cells to stop the leakage of SGPT into the blood.
3. Avoid high fatty foods which may lead to accumulation in the liver leading to decreased function of it.
4. Avoid foods high in salt or sodium.Excessive amounts of salt in the body, especially in the liver, cause swelling and fluid retention. This makes it harder for the liver to filter waste.
5. Last but not the least STOP alcohol intake, avoid marjuna consumption they may damage the liver.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
