What causes high VLDL and low Alkaline phosphatase?

High VLDL and low Alkaline phosphatase can be caused by many reasons.

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