Blood work during water fasting (specifically liver function)


(Seth) #1

Elevated AST (47) and Bilirubin Total (4.7) after 9 days fasting.
Lipase 10, ketones (Urine) 10 and pH 6 (glucose blood 67).

It’s this reasonable?
Any reason for elevated AST and Bilirubin?

Thanks :pray:

Did you get them tested before fasting?

I’ve had ALT and AST tested after 4.5 days fasting, but they were 20 and 19, respectively. I did not get them tested before fasting, though. That was from a 9/8/15 test. On that test, my blood glucose was 62. The ALT, AST are currently (8/9/19) 10 and 13, respectively. They seem to vary each time, though, highs of 23 and 23, respectively, for me.

Bilirubin is not in my spreadsheet, and is probably on my data at home.
