Significantly elevated levels of Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) often suggest the existence of other medical problems such as viral hepatitis, congestive heart failure, liver damage, bile duct problems, infectious mononucleosis, or myopathy.
The paper's data showed that in a population at high risk for Non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a diet lower in carbohydrate
decreased serum ALT concentrations to a greater degree than a higher-carbohydrate/low-fat diet.AMAZON UK Genocide: How Your Doctor's Dietary Ignorance Will Kill You!!!!
