The normal range for a test will vary depending on which lab did the test. When you received the result of alkaline phosphatase, there should've been a listing of the normal range next to it. By consulting this, you can determine if a 28 is a low reading for your particular lab.

If it does turn out that 28 is a low reading for your lab, don't worry about it. A low value of alkaline phosphatase has no meaning whatsoever. For this test, the doctor only worries about high values.

hypothyroidism can cause low,pernicious anemia is another
hypo- phosphorous can also...malnutrition is another cause
some drugs can also,ie,medications
yours is just slightly low,40 usually the cutoff for low range
check ya thyroid
