Caught by LOOKING at the live page on 2026-07-30, right after\n   the template was switched to canvas.\n\n   Everything is scoped to `.bp-adv`, so nothing here can reach the rest of\n   bioprofile.com, and core blocks are styled BY ELEMENT so a heading, a\n   paragraph, a quote, a list, an image or a button inserted by hand inside the\n   advertorial comes out on-design with no class to remember.\n\n   Jesse's design feedback, 2026-07-29 23:38, point by point:\n   1. the light green and the dark green are the preferred colours; grey may be\n      used but the page must NOT open grey;\n   2. more colour and variation across sections, e.g. a colour block on the left\n      or the right side of a section, without overdesign;\n   3. ONE H1, plain text on white; everything else H2 or H3; an H2 may carry its\n      own background colour so the page can be read from the headings alone; an\n      H3 keeps its section background and gets a bigger font size;\n   4. reuse the results page design feel;\n   5. Written by \/ Verified by, the placeholder blocks and noindex stay.\n\n   COLOUR PROVENANCE. Not one hex is invented.\n   - #b7cb32  LIGHT GREEN, brand manual \"colours rejuvenation protocol\"\n              (R183 G203 B51). Same value as --bp-lime in\n              brands\/bioprofile\/brand\/tokens.md.\n   - #006b62  DARK GREEN, brand manual, nourish the cells (R0 G107 B98).\n   - #005859  brand manual primary teal, the value the brand is built on.\n   - #228a62  brand manual, challenge the body (R34 G138 B98).\n   - #7ca64c  brand manual, calm the mind (R124 G166 B76).\n   - #dbd4cd  brand manual \"additional color\", the warm neutral.\n   - #B7CB3329 is the brand token --bp-lime-soft (light green at 16 percent).\n   - the gradients are the brand token layer's own, copied verbatim.\n\n   SPECIFICITY NOTE. Elementor's global kit emits `.elementor-kit-6 h2` style\n   rules at (0,1,1). Element rules below are written `.bp-adv h2`, also (0,1,1),\n   and win on source order because this sheet is inline in the body while the\n   kit is a <link> in the head. Component rules that MUST NOT lose carry two\n   classes, e.g. `.bp-adv .wp-block-button__link`.\n\n   LAYOUT NOTE. Vertical rhythm uses `margin-block` and never the `margin`\n   shorthand, so the measure rule `.bp-adv-sec > * { margin-inline: auto }` can\n   centre a block without being outranked by its own element rule.\n   =========================================================================== *\/\n\n.bp-adv {\n  --bp-ink: #212527;\n  --bp-teal: #005859;\n  --bp-forest: #006B62;\n  --bp-emerald: #228A62;\n  --bp-olive: #7CA64C;\n  --bp-lime: #B7CB33;\n  --bp-lime-soft: #B7CB3329;\n  --bp-sand: #DBD4CB;\n  --bp-white: #FFFFFF;\n  --bp-foot: #6b6b6b;\n  --bp-grad-dark: linear-gradient(237deg, rgba(0,88,89,0.00) 62.94%, #005859 100%), linear-gradient(90deg, rgba(34,138,98,0.00) 40%, #228A62 100%), #006B62;\n  --bp-grad-lime: linear-gradient(110deg, rgba(183,203,51,0.00) 36.06%, rgba(183,203,51,0.25) 97.65%), #FFFFFF;\n  --bp-font: 'Poppins','Segoe UI',Arial,sans-serif;\n  --bp-fs-h1: 44px; --bp-fs-h2: 31px; --bp-fs-h3: 24px; --bp-fs-pre: 15px;\n  --bp-fs-body: 17px; --bp-fs-small: 14px; --bp-fs-foot: 13px; --bp-fs-btn: 17px;\n  --bp-lh-body: 1.75;\n  --bp-s-1: 4px; --bp-s-2: 8px; --bp-s-3: 12px; --bp-s-4: 16px;\n  --bp-s-5: 24px; --bp-s-6: 32px; --bp-s-7: 44px; --bp-s-8: 72px;\n  --bp-measure: 760px; --bp-side: 40px;\n  --bp-radius-photo: 16px; --bp-radius-btn: 10px; --bp-radius-card: 20px;\n  --bp-shadow: 0 10px 30px rgba(0,88,89,0.10);\n  font-family: var(--bp-font);\n  font-size: var(--bp-fs-body);\n  line-height: var(--bp-lh-body);\n  color: var(--bp-ink);\n  background: var(--bp-white);\n  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;\n}\n.bp-adv, .bp-adv * { box-sizing: border-box; }\n.bp-adv p, .bp-adv li, .bp-adv h1, .bp-adv h2, .bp-adv h3, .bp-adv blockquote,\n.bp-adv a, .bp-adv cite, .bp-adv span { overflow-wrap: break-word; min-width: 0; }\n\n\/* THE TOGGLE.

An enzyme is a protein that speeds up certain chemical reactions in your body. Thousands of enzymes play a part in everything your body does.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GGT is found throughout your body, but mainly in your liver. Your bile ducts are small tubes that carry bile into and out of your liver. Bile is a fluid your liver makes, and it is important for your digestion.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A doctor may request the test if you have symptoms that could be linked to your liver. Think of tiredness, weakness, yellow skin and yellow eyes, loss of appetite, pain or swelling in your belly, nausea and vomiting, or a lot of itching.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bp-adv-sec is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bp-waarom-het-ertoe-doet\">Why gamma-GT matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A high gamma-GT can be a sign of damage to your liver or your bile ducts. The test cannot tell you what the cause is. Usually, though, the higher the level, the more damage.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GGT is usually measured together with or after other liver markers, often ALP. This helps your doctor see whether an abnormal result is more likely to come from your liver or from your bones.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drinking alcohol raises GGT. Most people who find it hard to keep their drinking under control have a high level. That is why the test is also used to monitor alcohol use.<sup>[2]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Researchers in Austria followed 163,944 adults to see whether GGT is linked to death from a disease of the heart and blood vessels. This shows that the marker also draws researchers' attention beyond the liver.<sup>[1]<\/sup><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group bp-adv-sec bp-adv-sec--wash is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bp-wat-je-waarde-zegt\">What your gamma-GT value tells you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The lab's reference range<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Labplusarts, the lab BioProfile works with, uses a reference range of 0 to 55 u\/l for GGT.

That damage can be linked to things such as inflammation of the liver, another liver condition, heavy drinking, inflammation of the pancreas, a blood sugar condition, a heart condition or a side effect of a medicine. The level does not tell you which cause it is.
