Clinical Protocol

7-Day AST Management Plan

A diet to lower Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST). High AST can signal liver, muscle, or heart stress.

Protocol Objectives
Antioxidants

Vitamin E and C help protect liver and muscle cells from damage.

Hydration

Dehydration stresses muscle and liver tissue. Drink adequate water.

Avoid Processed Foods

Additives and preservatives increase the liver's detox load.
