In most cases, the normal value of glutathione aminotransferase (AST) is around 15 to 40 U/L for a healthy person. Of course, the normal value of glutathione transaminase varies slightly depending on the testing reagents used by the hospital. If a patient has doubts about the normal value of glutathione transaminase, the patient needs to ask the doctor about the normal value of the glutathione transaminase test at that hospital. If the patient’s test glutathione number is 50, which is slightly higher than normal, then the patient needs to ask the doctor about the specific situation. Glutamic transaminase, also referred to as AST in medical terms, is an ancillary test in medical testing for diseases such as myocardial infarction and hepatitis. Usually, a high value of glutathione alerts to the development of many diseases. The most important thing is that the heart and the liver are the main tissues where glutathione is found, so if the index of glutathione is too high, it is likely that the heart or the liver is diseased.
A high GTRI may be a result of liver disease such as viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, or liver cancer, and if the GTRI is high, you need to go to the hospital as soon as possible for examination and diagnosis.
In addition, a high GTRI may also be the cause of a disease such as myocardial infarction or myocarditis, and patients need to follow their doctor’s advice for diagnosis and treatment, and should not delay the examination and treatment of the disease and affect their health.
