Hello, The most common causes for fatty liver and high AST SND ALT are alcohol consumption, however in absence of alcohol consumption other reasons which are important are high cholesterol, consumtion of more sugar and diabetes. In your case, probably high cholesterol and diabetes are responsible for your fatty liver and high liver enzymes. There is a lot of controversy regarding the medication as many gastroenterologists feel that medicines like PROTOCOL have no use. The best and ideal treatment is quit alcohol, if any, control your cholesterol and blood sugar levels, do regular exercises and shed your weight. Get your liver enzymes tested after 3 months. Most likely you should be all right. In case, you don't find improvement, consult a gastroenterologist and get yourself tested comprehensively. Thanks
