Reading Labs: GGT - A Key Marker for Liv...

NURSE DOZA
About this episode

This podcast episode discusses the importance of the GGT liver enzyme test in determining the presence of fatty liver disease. Nurse Doza explains that GGT levels above 30 may indicate liver inflammation and damage. However, he emphasizes that GGT alone is not sufficient to assess liver health and advises combining it with other tests like AST and ALT, as well as an ultrasound. Nurse Doza encourages listeners to take control of their health and request the GGT test if necessary.
