31Study design is multiple-dose, open-label study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety after twice daily GD Antrodia camphorata administration for 90 days in 30 healthy adult subjects.
Primary objective: The mean change from baseline in laboratory assessment after twice daily GD Antrodia camphorata administration at 90th day in 30 healthy adult subjects.
Secondary objective: The mean change from baseline in laboratory assessment after twice daily GD Antrodia camphorata administration at 10th, 20th, 30th, 45th and 60th day in 30 healthy adult subjects.
Safety Measurement:
including SGOT(AST), SGPT(ALT), albumin, glucose, creatinine, uric acid, cholesterol, TG, r-GT, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, D-Bil, BUN, TP, GLO will be documented at 1st, 10th, 20th, 30th, 45th, 60th and 90th day.
vital signs (heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature) will be documented at 1st, 10th, 20th, 30th, 45th, 60th and 90th day.
Subjects will be monitored throughout the confinement portion of the study.
Study design is multiple-dose, open-label study
Antrodia camphorata has been proved to alleviate liver injury and fibrosis induced by chemical and reduces ALT and AST according to the literatures.
"GD Antrodia camphorata" will be marketed as dietary supplement.

GD Antrodia Camphorata is the extract from mycelium of the fungus "Antrodia Camphorata" which is an endemic species in Taiwan. According to the literatures, mycelium of Antrodia camphorata is beneficial to health. Moreover, the study product GD Antrodia Camphorata has been approved by Department of Health, Taiwan as a health supplement (approval number A00124).

The total protein test measures the total amount of two classes of proteins in the blood, albumin and globulin.
Direct bilirubin is referred to as conjugated bilirubin, which is water-soluble. It's taken up by the liver cells and conjugated to form the water-soluble bilirubin diglucuronide. It's used to diagnose and/or monitor liver diseases, such as cirrhosis, hepatitis or gallstones. If direct bilirubin is elevated more than unconjugated bilirubin, there's typically a problem associated with decreased elimination of bilirubin by the liver cells.
Bilirubin is released into the blood when red blood cells break down. The liver uses bilirubin to make bile. Normally there is only a small amount of bilirubin in the blood. High levels may be caused by liver or blood problems.
