SGPT is a liver enzyme which increases in situations where there is acute ( immediate and sudden) damage to liver. Its most common cause is Hepatitis. Though it is not the only cause. Jaundice is yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes( e.g. eyes get yellow in jaundice). This Yellowing is imparted by the sudden increase of a yellow pigment in the body called bilirubin - which is ideally eliminated by the liver. But in cases of liver damage - when the liver can't eliminate this pigment or colour- the entire body gets stained or pigmented by it. Diet to be followed by jaundiced patient should take care of the fact that its the responsibility of liver to form sugar and process proteins. Hence a high carbohydrate but a low protein diet is considered good for short term basis.
