How to lower GGT levels in the blood?
If you need to lower your GGT levels, avoid alcohol, junk food, and smoking. Instead, include liver-friendly foods in your diet (vegetables, grains, beans, nuts), take liver-friendly supplements, and exercise moderately.
How fast does GGT drop?
The speed at which your GGT levels drop depends on whether you conscientiously follow the rules that actually lead to a decrease. For example, if you give up alcohol, your GGT levels will drop significantly after just a month. However, gradual changes can be noticed in as little as two weeks, according to experts (1).
