Hello, thank you for visiting HCM. Elevated liver enzymes are potentially a side effect of statin medications or actually, any number of medications. Before your doctor will give you a diagnosis and let us know himself why your liver enzymes are elevated. Diets are tailored to the diagnosis, not just to a couple of lab values. What did your doctor tell you was the reason? Once you have more information, please come back with the diagnosis and all abnormal lab values, and list of medications. Then we will be more equipped to assist you.
