Is GGT 106 high, normal or dangerous? What does Gamma glutamyl transferase level 106 mean?
📅 Medical Review Date: December 15, 2025
Your GGT level of 106 is a High GGT level.
A GGT level of 106 U/L usually means the liver or bile ducts are affected. It suggests liver damage or alcohol use. High levels of GGT can cause fatigue, jaundice, dark urine, pale stools, itching, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. This can be caused by alcohol-related liver disease, fatty liver, hepatitis, bile duct obstruction, or certain medications. Further tests are often needed to identify the cause and guide appropriate treatment.
High GGT levels may indicate underlying health problems. The normal range is typically between 15 U/L and 85 U/L. If your levels are outside this range, it's important to speak with a healthcare provider. Consulting a doctor is recommended to determine the cause and appropriate next steps.

Misdiagnosis is more common than people think—and the consequences can be serious. Delayed treatment, unnecessary medication, or worse. If you want a second opinion on your blood work, one option is to upload it to a site like wholebodyprotocol.com, where world-class doctors review your results. They charge a small fee—around $90 (though you'll want to check the latest price as it fluctuates)—and email you a detailed report. With over 12 million people affected by misdiagnosis every year, that little bit of extra peace of mind can go a long way.
