What Is The Treatment For Fatty Liver Disease?

I recently had a lft alt level of 77 and serum gt level of 68. Since these are in excess of normal ranges, how high do they represent a problem with liver. Eg are there various upper ranges such as 45-100 = mild fatty liver etc. I am also insulin resistant have pcos and may be pre diabetic. All the signs of fatty liver disease.

Hello

Findings suggest raised ALT and GGT level.
Increased ALT and GGT may indicate liver injury.It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis,alcohol intake,altered lipid profile,medicines,auto immune causes etc.

You may need few more investigations like routine hemogram,random blood sugar,lipid profile,urine RE/ME.

I suggest tablet ursodeoxycholic acid 300 mg twice daily for three months to my patients.It helps in regeneration of liver cells.

You should avoid saturated fat and go for brisk walk regularly.
Avoid alcohol if you take it.

Get well soon.
Take Care
