What Does Fatty Liver And High SGOT Levels Indicate?

Dear Doctor, I am aged 35 and weight is 106. I had been to doctor on 20/11/13. My USG SCAN Diagnosed as GRADE 1 FATTY LIVER. My blood levels SGOT & all related are very high. Almost the double of the maximum prescribed limits. After endoscopy the diagnosis was LAX CARDIA & DIFFUSE EROSIVE GASTRITIS. Is it something serious. They have advised me Heptral 400 , UDILIV tablets.

Hi thank you for using HCM. i had gone through your query.
SGOT and SGPT are the liver enzymes that indicate the liver cell injury. fatty liver is the abnormal accumulation of fat in the liver cells.
I would suggest you to continue the medication prescribed by your doctor and follow the instructions given below to lower sgot levels and to get rid off fatty liver as it is a reversible condition.
This can be achieved by simple lifestyle modifications for weight loss.
I would advise you to follow these instructions given below.
Try losing 1 or 2 pounds per week not more than that, as it would lead to health problems.
Go for cardiovascular exercises like brisk walking, running, swimming for 45min a day, 6 times a week. Strength training 4times a week.
Avoid alcohol , quit from smoking.
Avoid fatty foods, junk foods, deep fried foods, simple sugars, pizzas, chocolates, ice creams, soft drinks.
Have a balanced and healthy diet that should include complex carbohydrates like brown rice, oats, brown bread. High protein foods like egg white, pulses, beans, sprouts, soya beans, milk, cottage cheese. Low fat foods. Use olive oil. Have 4 to 5 servings of green leafy vegetables along with all mixed vegetables. 5 to 6 servings of all fruits except banana, mango, chickoo.
Drinky 3 litres of water per day.
If you have diabetes keep your blood sugars under control.
Get regular check ups for cholesterol and triglycerides from your doctor.
