GGT — optimal range for vegans & vegetarians
An enzyme (gamma-glutamyl transferase).
Optimal range
≤ 40 U/L
How a value is read
| Optimal | ≤ 40 U/L |
| Above optimal | 40 – 60 U/L |
| Markedly high | > 60 U/L |
Bands are given in the marker's canonical unit; values in other units are converted automatically.
Why it matters on a plant-based diet
Sensitive to alcohol and fatty liver. A good early marker of liver stress.
A single marker decides nothing
Deficiencies mask one another: high folate hides low B12, inflammation inflates ferritin, low zinc mimics iron deficiency. VEGALYSIS reads the whole picture and explains the links.
