Background. Unexplained liver enzyme activities are often found in health screening programs and constitute an increasingly common cause for referral to specialized clinics. Recent studies have indicated that both excess body weight and alcohol consumption may lead to metabolic aberrations which are readily reflected in the activities of liver enzymes in circulation. Materials and methods. We compared various laboratory markers and their upper normal limits in relation to information on alcohol consumption and BMI in a large population of apparently healthy individuals collected from Nordic countries. Results. Based on the data obtained from normal weight abstainers (BMI 19-25 kg/m= 40 years) for GGT, while the current recommendations are 70 U/L, 80 U/L, and 115 U/L, respectively. Already in comparisons between normal weight abstainers and corresponding moderate drinkers notable impacts (+14% - +74%) on upper limits for these analytes were seen, which further grew when adiposity occurred together with alcohol drinking (+75% - +186%, BMI >= 27 kg/m
