LFT - Liver Function Tests in HINDI - Explained by Dr. Sandeep Jassal - LiveLifeMore Diet & Wellness

LFT - Liver Function Tests -Explained in Hindi by Dr. Sandeep Jassal from LiveLifeMore Diet & Wellness Clinic, based in Chandigarh. The liver is our body’s largest internal organ weighing around 3 pounds in adults and is measures roughly around the size of a football. This vital organ plays an important role in the body’s metabolic, detoxification, and immune system functions. Without an optimally functioning liver, we can imagine a healthy life. Liver function tests indicate the levels of various important enzymes and proteins in your blood. Depending on the reports of the tests, either higher- or lower-than-normal levels of these enzymes or proteins can indicate a problem with your liver. Some common liver function tests include: Alanine transaminase (ALT) or SGPT: Alanine transaminase (ALT) is used by your body to metabolise protein. If the liver is damaged or not functioning properly, ALT can be released into the blood. This causes ALT levels to increase. A higher than normal result on this test can be a sign of liver damage. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, an ALT above 25 IU/L (international units per litre) in females and 33 IU/L in males typically requires further testing and evaluation. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or SGOT Test: Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme found in several parts of your body, including the heart, liver, and muscles. Since AST levels aren’t as specific for liver damage as ALT, it’s usually measured together with ALT to check for liver problems. When the liver is damaged, AST can be released into the bloodstream. A high result on an AST test might indicate a problem with the liver or muscles. The normal range for AST is typically up to 40 IU/L in adults and may be higher in infants and young children. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) test: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme found in your bones, bile ducts, and liver. An ALP test is typically ordered in combination with several other tests. High levels of ALP may indicate liver inflammation, blockage of the bile ducts, or bone disease. Children and adolescents may have elevated levels of ALP because their bones are growing. Pregnancy can also raise ALP levels. The normal range for ALP is typically up to 120 U/L in adults. Serum Albumin test: Albumin is the main protein made by your liver. It performs many important bodily functions. For example, albumin: - stops fluid from leaking out of your blood vessels - nourishes your tissues - transports hormones, vitamins, and other substances throughout your body An albumin test measures how well your liver is making this particular protein. A low result on this test can indicate that your liver isn’t functioning properly. The normal range for albumin is 3.5–5.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL). However, low albumin can also be a result of poor nutrition, kidney disease, infection, and inflammation. Serum Bilirubin test : Bilirubin is a waste product from the breakdown of red blood cells. It’s ordinarily processed by the liver. It passes through the liver before being excreted through your stool. A damaged liver can’t properly process bilirubin. This leads to an abnormally high level of bilirubin in the blood. A high result of the bilirubin test may indicate that the liver isn’t functioning properly. The normal range for total bilirubin is typically 0.1–1.2 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). There are certain inherited diseases that raise bilirubin levels, but the liver function is normal. Why do I need a liver function test? Liver tests can help determine if your liver is working correctly. The liver performs a number of vital bodily functions, such as: - removing contaminants from your blood - converting nutrients from the foods you eat - storing minerals and vitamins - regulating blood clotting - producing cholesterol, proteins, enzymes, and bile - making factors that fight infection - removing bacteria from your blood - processing substances that could harm your body - maintaining hormone balances - regulating blood sugar levels Problems with the liver can make a person very sick and can even be life-threatening. 🔔 Subscribe to my YouTube channel -    / @livelifemore   ============================================================== ✅10 Best Natural Ways To Control High Blood Pressure - Dr Sandeep Jassal    • 10 Best Natural Ways To Control High ...   ✅Why Am I Always Tired?
