A member asked:
Can fasting lead to elevated liver enzymes? can a crash diet (reducing calories suddenly and drastically) cause elevated liver enzymes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: I appreciate your strength in crash dieting, but plans for permanent lifestyle change are even more helpful. The fatty liver seen in nutritional deficiency is well-known and this may be why your liver enzymes spiked. Or they may have been high all along from obesity or from some other cause worth finding.
