What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing constant tiredness, digestive problems, unexplained nausea, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. It helps identify liver damage, hepatitis infection, or other conditions affecting your liver's ability to filter toxins and produce essential proteins. Many people use this test when they have unexplained fatigue or digestive issues that might be related to liver function.

What's included in this test?

ALT AST Albumin Albumin/Globulin Ratio Alkaline Phosphatase Bilirubin, Direct Bilirubin, Indirect Bilirubin, Total Globulin Protein, Total

This comprehensive panel measures liver enzymes (ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase) that indicate liver cell damage or inflammation, bilirubin levels that show how well your liver processes waste, and protein markers (albumin, globulin, total protein) that reflect your liver's ability to produce essential nutrients. Together, these biomarkers provide a complete picture of your liver's functional health, helping identify issues like fatty liver disease, hepatitis, cirrhosis, or other conditions affecting digestion, energy, and toxin removal.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your liver enzyme levels and protein markers mean for your overall health and energy. These notes include personalized recommendations like dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, or whether you should follow up with a gastroenterologist or hepatologist. Along with your standard lab report, you can use our trends feature to track your liver health over time, which is especially helpful if you're making lifestyle changes or monitoring a chronic condition.

Who should consider getting this test?
This test is important for people who drink alcohol regularly, take medications that can affect the liver, have a family history of liver disease, or are overweight. It's also valuable for anyone experiencing persistent fatigue, digestive problems, abdominal discomfort, or unexplained changes in appetite. People with hepatitis risk factors or those monitoring known liver conditions should also consider regular testing.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common symptoms that suggest liver issues include persistent fatigue that doesn't improve with rest, digestive problems like nausea or loss of appetite, dark urine or pale stools, and yellowing of the skin or eyes. You might also experience abdominal pain or swelling in the upper right side, unexplained itching, or easy bruising and bleeding.
How can I naturally support my liver health?
Supporting liver health starts with limiting alcohol consumption and maintaining a healthy weight through balanced nutrition and regular exercise. Eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins while avoiding processed foods and excess sugar helps reduce liver stress. Staying well-hydrated, avoiding unnecessary medications or supplements, and getting regular physical activity all support optimal liver function.
What does high ALT or AST mean?
Elevated ALT and AST are liver enzymes that leak into your bloodstream when liver cells are damaged or inflamed. High levels can indicate conditions like fatty liver disease, hepatitis, excessive alcohol use, or medication side effects. The degree of elevation and the ratio between these enzymes help determine the cause and severity of liver stress.
What does high bilirubin mean?
High bilirubin levels occur when your liver isn't processing this waste product efficiently, which can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice). Elevated bilirubin can indicate liver disease, bile duct blockage, or conditions affecting red blood cell breakdown. It may also cause dark urine and can be a sign that your liver needs medical attention.
How often should I retest my liver function?
If you have normal results and no risk factors, testing every 1-2 years as part of routine wellness screening is reasonable. If you're monitoring a known liver condition or taking medications that affect the liver, your doctor may recommend testing every 3-6 months. People with hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or who drink alcohol regularly should follow their healthcare provider's specific monitoring schedule.
What should I do if my liver enzymes are elevated?
If your results show elevated liver enzymes, start by reviewing your alcohol intake, medications, and diet with your healthcare provider. Consider reducing or eliminating alcohol, losing weight if needed, and eating a liver-friendly diet rich in vegetables and lean proteins. Your doctor may recommend additional testing to identify the underlying cause and may suggest lifestyle modifications, medication adjustments, or treatment for specific liver conditions.

What this means

Your ALT level is slightly elevated above the optimal range, which may indicate mild liver inflammation or stress. This is commonly seen with fatty liver, alcohol use, certain medications, or metabolic conditions, and while not immediately alarming, it suggests your liver could benefit from some extra support.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More complex tests, such as hormone panels, may take up to 10–15 business days due to their complexity.
