[|AI|]  Dear AM Chandra, Hi and Welcome. I appreciate your concern for the raised liver enzymes. The findings are suggestive of some sort of liver injury/disease. In addition to intake of alcohol or alcohol containing beverages, diseases of the liver, gall bladder or pancreas can also increase the level of these enzymes. To ascertain the exact cause in your case, you are advised to consult a physician for proper evaluation and workup to rule out the above diseases, you may need to undergo lab tests, abdominal ultrasound, etc. Meanwhile, avoid taking alcohol (if you happened to be taking), take a healthy balanced diet preferable home cooked food, vegetables and fruits. Hope the suggestion given above could be useful in detecting the exact cause of the raised enzymes.
