Elevated SGOT (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase) and SGPT (Serum Glutamic Pyruvic Transaminase) levels may indicate liver stress or damage. To reduce these levels and improve liver health:
- Identify the Underlying Cause: Determine the cause of elevated liver enzymes, which can range from excessive alcohol consumption to viral infections or medication side effects.
- Lifestyle Changes: Reduce alcohol intake or eliminate it completely, maintain a healthy weight, and adopt a balanced diet low in saturated fats.
- Medication Review: If medications are contributing to the increase, consult with your healthcare provider to adjust or change them.
- Hepatitis Screening: If viral hepatitis is suspected, get tested for hepatitis A, B, and C, and follow appropriate treatment recommendations.
- Regular Check-ups: Monitor your liver enzyme levels through regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider to track progress.
- Liver-Healthy Diet: Incorporate foods that support liver health, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
- Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help flush toxins from your body.
It’s crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to identify the specific cause and tailor your approach to reducing SGOT and SGPT levels.
