What causes high Phosphorus and low GGT?

High Phosphorus and low GGT can be caused by many reasons.

If your Phosphorus is in between 2.5 mg/dL and 4.5 mg/dL and your GGT is in between 15 U/L and 85 U/L then you need not worry as these are the normal ranges for Phosphorus and GGT respectively. But if your levels are lesser or greater than the above values, then there may be some problem in your body.

Some examples of conditions that can increase or decrease Phosphorus levels include:

• Increased blood calcium
• Diabetic ketoacidosis (after treatment)
• Liver disease
• Rickets and osteomalacia (due to vitamin D deficiencies)
• Kidney failure

Normal range of Phosphorus : 2.5 - 4.5 mg/dL

High Phosphorus and low GGT can be caused by a lot of reasons. If you take Phosphorus and GGT blood tests and the results are higher than 4.5 mg/dL for Phosphorus and lower than 15 U/L for GGT, your physician may recommend more tests to figure out the problem. You might also get these tests if your physician thinks you have some other disease.
