Hi thanks for contacting HCM,..
Your liver enzymes can be high because of high alcohol drinking.....
Alcohol and its metabolite aldehyde can affect liver and damage heoatocytes so liver enzymes can be high.....
It is best if you avoid alcohol....
But if you want to take it never take it above normal safe limit ....
Up to 20 gm / days is safe limit ....
Take healthy and balanced diet with more fruits.....
The elevated enzymes by alcohol will come down to normal range within few days to few month depending on severity....
Take carrot , avocados, spinach , mustard green , indian gooseberry like good food for liver.....
Hope your concern solved...
Take care
