In general, high transaminases indicate inflammation of the liver and possible liver damage, but high transaminases are not always a sign of hepatitis. The five tests for hepatitis B and hepatitis C antibodies are the basis for the diagnosis of hepatitis. So, many patients often ask, “Why do I have abnormal transaminases when I have no history of hepatitis? This is because, in addition to hepatitis, other diseases and non-pathological factors can also cause an increase in transaminases. The following is a summary of the pathological causes of elevated transaminases: 1, hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver cancer; 2, fatty liver; 3, alcoholic hepatitis due to long-term drinking; 4, drug-related liver injury; 5, cholecystitis, gallstones; 6, heart, brain, kidney diseases can also cause elevated transaminases; 7, autoimmune hepatitis; 8, during pregnancy, as the month increases the burden on the liver of pregnant women The burden on the liver of pregnant women will also increase during pregnancy, resulting in high aminotransferases; 9, infectious diseases: cold, pneumonia, etc. All of the above are pathological causes of elevated aminotransferases, but what are the non-pathological causes? Will the transaminase level of healthy people also be elevated? The aminotransferase levels of healthy people may also temporarily exceed the normal range. 1, strenuous exercise, exertion, staying up late; 2, eating fried things at breakfast before the physical examination, or recently eating more greasy food test results may exceed the normal range; 3, if a long time drinking alcohol, but now have refrained from alcohol, his aminotransferases may also be elevated. What should patients with abnormal aminotransferases pay attention to in their diet? Patients with elevated transaminases should eat more: 1. fresh vegetables and fruits; 2. fungal foods: such as shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms, black fungus, monkey head mushrooms, straw mushrooms, etc.; 3. high protein foods: such as fish, soy products, milk. Because these foods are rich in vitamins or proteins, easy to digest and absorb, improve the body’s immunity, and promote the repair and regeneration of liver cells. Patients with high aminotransferase cannot eat food: 1, can not eat spicy and stimulating food; 2, also mentioned before eating fried food will make the aminotransferase rise, so can not eat fried, high fat, high sugar, high cholesterol food; 3, although patients with high aminotransferase should eat some high-protein food, but can not eat too much high-protein food, because the right amount of high protein is conducive to liver repair, enhance the reserve capacity of the liver, but For patients with high aminotransferases, liver function is damaged to a certain extent, and consuming too much high-protein food can cause hepatotoxicity or even induce hepatic coma to the body when the liver is incapable of converting the generated blood ammonia into urea in time. There are many causes of elevated transaminases, so it is important to identify the cause and to confirm the diagnosis of hepatitis through various hospital tests.
