A member asked:
Will high triglysaride cause high alt ?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
ALT?: Usually know. However very high triglycerides can lead to pancreatitis which can have abnormal liver function tests. Additionally, patients with fatty liver can have abnormal lft and some with high tgs.

Fatty liver: If you mean abnormal liver test, I do not think high triglyceride itself causes it. However obesity which may be associated with high triglyceride, can also cause fatty liver disease with abnormal liver function test.

9 y/o obese- high triglycerides, low HDL and ALT of 49. Doc recommended diet/exercise. Any other tests needed? Any activity restrictions required?
ALT is 63, AST normal range. I am obese, high triglycerides, bad eating, and pretty sedentary. Diet and exercise to get levels down? Any supplements you would recommend in addition? I hear the liver is resilient, responds well to lifestyle changes.
