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.
Solutions to low alkaline phosphatase levels include treating the underlying cause. In the incidence of hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone replacement therapy is indicated. Magnesium and zinc deficiencies can be managed with supplementation, and anemia can be controlled with iron supplements. Low alkaline phosphatase may indicate conditions that cause symptoms such as fatigue, rapid heart rate, shortness of breath, intolerance to cold, constipation and severe weight loss. It is important to receive timely medical intervention at the first indication of these symptoms.
