Mild transaminesemia refers to levels up to 250 U/L. [1] Drug-induced increases such as that found with the use of anti-tuberculosis agents such as isoniazid are limited typically to below 100 U/L for either ALT or AST. Muscle sources of the enzymes, such as intense exercise, are unrelated to liver function and can markedly increase AST and ALT ...
A frozen processed foods aisle at a supermarket in Canada. This is a list of frozen food brands. Frozen food is food that is frozen from the time it is produced to the time it is either defrosted or cooked by the consumer, or eaten while still frozen.

Alanine transaminase (ALT), also known as alanine aminotransferase (ALT or ALAT), formerly serum glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (GPT) or serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), is a transaminase enzyme (EC 2.6.1.2) that was first characterized in the mid-1950s by Arthur Karmen and colleagues.

When it comes to meat-free frozen food, mushiness can be an issue. But with chunks of whole black beans and corn, the bite of the burger made the cut even for my skeptical husband.
The proportion of AST to ALT in hepatocytes is about 2.5:1, but because AST is removed from serum by the liver sinusoidal cells twice as quickly (serum half-life t 1/2 = 18 hr) compared to ALT (t 1/2 = 36 hr), so the resulting serum levels of AST and ALT are about equal in healthy individuals, resulting in a normal AST/ALT ratio around 1.
