What Is Alkaline Phosphatase and How Can Ayurveda Help in Balancing Its Levels? - #14995
I recently had a blood test, and my doctor mentioned that my alkaline phosphatase levels were higher than normal. The doctor didn’t seem too concerned and said it could be due to liver or bone issues, but I’m curious to learn more about what it means and how I can support my health if my levels remain elevated. I’ve heard that alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme found in the liver, bones, kidneys, and bile ducts, and elevated levels can sometimes indicate an underlying condition. I’m wondering if Ayurveda offers any natural remedies to support the liver or bones and help regulate alkaline phosphatase levels. I’ve read that herbs like Guduchi, Triphala, and Turmeric are great for liver health—could these herbs help lower alkaline phosphatase levels? Additionally, I’m curious if Ayurveda has any dietary recommendations for supporting healthy liver function and balancing alkaline phosphatase levels. Should I include certain foods or avoid others that might impact liver health or bone function? Has anyone here had elevated alkaline phosphatase levels and found that Ayurvedic treatments or lifestyle changes helped normalize the enzyme levels? What herbs, foods, or practices worked best for you in supporting liver and bone health naturally?
