Liver Health
Liver biomarker testing can detect early signs of wear in the liver, giving physicians a clear picture of how well the organ is handling its workload. Your liver processes everything you eat, drink, and absorb, filtering toxins, metabolizing hormones, and producing the proteins your blood depends on. Liver stress tends to build gradually and quietly, often showing up in a blood test lab work long before it becomes symptomatic.
Biomarkers we test to track liver health
Liver biomarker testing measures enzyme levels, protein markers, and bilirubin in the blood, including ALT, AST, ALP, albumin, globulin, and total bilirubin. These blood tests show how well your liver is functioning and whether patterns point to inflammation, damage, or dysfunction.
Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)
AST is an enzyme found in the liver, heart, and muscles that rises in the blood when these tissues are damaged, making it a broad but important marker of liver and overall tissue health.

ALT is a liver enzyme that leaks into the bloodstream when liver cells are damaged, making it one of the most direct and sensitive markers of liver injury or inflammation.

Alkaline Phosphatase is an enzyme found in the liver, bones, and bile ducts. Elevated levels often point to liver disease, bile duct obstruction, or bone disorders.

Total bilirubin measures the amount of bilirubin, a yellow pigment produced when red blood cells break down, circulating in the blood. Elevated levels often signal liver or bile duct issues.
Learn More About Total BilirubinGlobulin
Globulin is a group of proteins produced by the liver and immune system that play a central role in fighting infection, transporting nutrients, and supporting overall immune function.
Learn More About GlobulinAlbumin
Albumin is the most abundant protein in the blood. It is produced by the liver and plays a key role in maintaining fluid balance, transporting nutrients, and supporting tissue repair.

Total protein measures the combined level of proteins like albumin and globulin in the blood. It offers a broad view of liver function, nutritional status, and the body's ability to maintain and repair itself.
