Hello.GOT y GPT are indicating hepatic cells injury. There are many factors that can cause elevation of GOT and GPT including supplements to gain muscle mass.Supplements can cause this effect and other side effects(physical and psychical)therefore not recommended to take them.Another the moost common causes of hepatic enzymes elevation are overconsumption alcohol and fatty foods , take some drugs,obesity or pathologies such as fatty liver. Although hepatic enzymes elevation is very slight you must go to your doctor and he will request,posibly,a abdomen ultrasound. As for precautions you have to take are avoid the factors referred that cause hepatic enzymes elevation(including supplements)and practice sport. I wish you good health (In case the answer would have been useful please indicate this)
