      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization will perform using the random block method (1:1:1 ratio) for four groups (one control and three intervention groups). In this method, blocks of four with rotation will be created by an out-of-study person. Then, a block will be randomly selected to determine the groups assigned to the first four participants.  The random- blocks selection process will be repeated to determine the random allocation for the entire sample size. For allocation concealment, after determining the random sequence, these sequences will be placed in numbered sealed opaque envelopes for each participant. An out of study person familiar with randomization will perform this process. During the study, by entering any participant in this study, based on the sequence, an envelope will be opened and the allocated group will be revealed, Blinding description: In this study, for building the intervention, supplements (including three types) and placebo are the same in terms of color and odor of capsules and will be named A, B, C and D. The process of producing capsules and naming them will be done by an out-of -study person. Therefore, in this study, the researcher team and the participants of different groups will be blinded to the type of the interventions or placebo consumed by each participant in order to observe the principles of blinding.</study_design>
