It can be a lot of reasons like diet, medication, genetics, alcohol intake etc
The fact that it's the only thing picked up in your blood test is reassuring and I think that any disease would have showed up elsewhere in the bloods. Try not to freak out until you have reason to, which I'm sure you don't.
