Take Control of Your Liver Health with Our Essential ALT Test
Your liver is your body’s silent workhorse – filtering toxins, processing nutrients, and keeping you healthy. But when liver damage occurs, it often happens quietly, without obvious symptoms. Many South Africans only discover liver issues when they’ve become serious. Our SGPT Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) test for ZAR 100 gives you the power to detect liver problems early, when they’re most treatable.
Understanding Your ALT Liver Function Test
The ALT test measures alanine aminotransferase, an enzyme found mainly in your liver. When liver cells are damaged or inflamed, they release ALT into your bloodstream. Think of it as your liver’s distress signal – higher levels indicate that your liver needs attention. This simple blood test provides crucial insights into your liver’s health without complex procedures or lengthy waits.
Our testing uses the reliable IFCC method, ensuring accurate results you can trust. With daily turnaround, you won’t be left wondering about your health status for days or weeks.
Who Should Consider This Liver Health Check?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained fatigue or weakness that doesn’t improve with rest
- Yellowing of skin or eyes (jaundice)
- Dark urine or pale-coloured stools
- Abdominal pain or swelling, especially in the upper right area
- Nausea, vomiting, or loss of appetite
- Regular alcohol consumption
