Have you ever opened your lab results and noticed those scary highlighted numbers next to AST or ALT? It’s enough to make anyone panic. Before you start Googling “liver damage,” join Dr. Vickie for a fun, fact-filled trip to mini medical school.

In this episode of Healthy Looks Great on You, Dr. Vickie explains what liver enzymes really measure, why fatty liver has become the most common liver disease in the world, and—most importantly—what you can do to heal your liver naturally.

You’ll learn the difference between AST, ALT, and Alk Phos (without needing a biochemistry degree), how diet, stress, and sleep impact your liver health, and why your liver has an incredible ability to repair itself. Spoiler alert: you don’t need a “cleanse” or detox tea—you just need the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine.

This is real science made simple—with a few cheesy jokes thrown in for good measure.

AST and ALT are enzymes that signal liver stress—not permanent damage.

The leading cause of elevated liver enzymes is fatty liver, not alcohol.

Fatty liver develops from too much sugar, processed food, stress, and inactivity.

Your liver can regenerate itself when given the right environment.

The 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine—nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep, avoiding harmful substances, and social connection—can reverse fatty liver naturally.
