I don't know of any way to tell other than blood tests. If that was the only one of your liver enzymes that was high, I personnally wouldn't worry about a 3 points above the upper limit. The total picture of liver enzymes needs to be looked at. Leacy Life is Good! On Thu, 28 Feb 2002

Thanks, I believe the test was GGT. 10 Chelations brought it down around 9 points but I was still 3 points above their recommended top limit of 65. My Chelation Dr said to take it for 1 month, does that sound OK? I hate to wait until next year for new blood tests to find out if it helped.

The liver enzyme test you are referring to is GGT, there is also SGOT (could also be that one), SGPT, and alkaline phosphtase. Those are the main liver enzymes for a serum (blood) chemistry profile. A very interesting note The milk thistle really DOES work - or at least covers up the damage
