Hi,
the elevation of SGPT can be because of many causes ,but at this age i still think because of fatty changes in liver ,this might be the reason for elevated sgpt.
Avoid oily and fatty food.
And recheck Sgpt levels after 3 months and if it is still elevated then we need to think of other causes and you can consult your doctor for the same .
Thank you
