Hi thanks for your concern.

I appreciate your concern that you are showing interest in knowing sgpt.

K.SGPT is a enzyme that is present in high amount in hepatocytes of liver.Small amount present in heart and muscle.

So whenever injury to this organs esp.liver this enzymes get liberated in blood.so in hepatitis and some time muscle and heart injury show elevated level of it.

Normal its value less than 42.

In malaria liver can injured and its level increasing rather then decrease.If sgpt not elevated then liver mostly not affected.

Food that are good ate low fat diet.
More fruits.
Green leafy veg useful.

Omega 3 fatty acid useful like olive oil or sunflower oil.

Trans fat like cheese, burger , meat avoided.

Exercise useful.

I hope I have answered your question well.
