Malnutrition is the most common cause of low alkaline phosphatase. In particular, inadequate consumption of vitamin B6, folic acid, vitamin C, zinc, and magnesium are the most common nutritional causes, along with excess consumption of vitamin D.
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme present in all human tissues throughout the body. The bulk of it, however, is found in the liver, where most of it is produced. A blood test for ALP can reveal different conditions when the enzyme is either higher or lower than the normal range.
