Suggest Treatment To Reduce Alkaline Phosphatase Levels In Blood

I just had a routine blood test and my Alkaline Phosphate came back a little high, 261 (out of the range of 25-150) but my AST & ALT are low normal? I have IBS but other than that completely healthy. What can I do to improve this number or is this just normal for me?

Hello
I see no reason to worry about this.

The elevation is minor and since the other liver enzymes are normal, there's no indication of a liver problem.

Were I your doctor, I would just repeat the tests in about three months
