In another study, of 100 people, those who had chronic
kidney disease had lower ALT levels, and the level dropped as the
kidney disease became more severe [16].
Health Effects Associated With Low ALT Levels
1) Heart Disease
In multiple studies with over one million participants in total, people with low ALT levels were more likely to suffer from heart disease [17, 8, 18].
Two studies of people with diabetes (9,795 and 2,993 participants) found similar results [19, 20].
