Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)
Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) - This test measures the level of GGT enzyme in the blood. GGT is primarily found in the liver and is a sensitive marker for liver diseases and bile duct damage and can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of alcoholic cirrhosis and liver tumors. This test is often used in conjunction with other liver function tests to differentiate between liver and bone disease.

Stephanie Strudley
Stephanie Strudley, CNS, is a functional medicine nutritionist and the founder of Upstream Wellness. She helps driven, health-conscious adults who've done "everything right" and still don't feel like themselves — connecting the dots between symptoms, labs, and lifestyle to uncover what's actually going on. Her approach is shaped by an unconventional path: a background in ecology and systems biology, and her own experience navigating serious, unresolved health challenges before finding root-cause care herself. She doesn't believe in one-size-fits-all protocols or quick fixes — she believes health is more like solving a puzzle than following a formula, and her role is to help clients ask better questions, interpret their own data, and build a plan that fits their unique biology and life.
