What causes high Alkaline phosphatase and low VLDL?

If your Alkaline phosphatase is in between 30 U/L and 120 U/L and your VLDL is in between 5 mg/dL and 30 mg/dL then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Alkaline phosphatase and VLDL respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.
