Verdict

Antrodia cinnamomea (Niu-Chang-Chih) is a prized Taiwanese medicinal mushroom with published anti-inflammatory and antioxidant data for oral use, but dermal safety studies are lacking. Triterpenoids present in the extract have bioactivity that warrants formal toxicological evaluation for cosmetic use.
