But if the liver is inflamed or injured, ALT is released into the bloodstream. Measuring blood levels of ALT can give doctors important information about the liver and whether a disease, inflammation, drug, or other problem is affecting it.
Potatoes are ready for harvest when the foliage first starts to die and turn yellow. Early (new) potatoes can be lifted earlier (no earlier than June ) to get the very tastiest potatoes. In this case, harvest them about a week after the potato plant flowers first appear. New potatoes only produce a couple of handfuls of potatoes per plant, so dig up the whole plant. After flowering.
After potatoes are peeled, cut large potatoes in half or into quarters. If the potato pieces are still fairly large, cut in half again. The smaller the pieces, the faster they will get done. Try to cut the pieces so they are consistent in size so that they will cook evenly.
