      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Eligible subjects will be divided randomly into two groups including control and intervention. Randomization will be performed using the computer-generated random numbers. the naming of taurine or placebo bottles will be done based on random numbers and odd or even numbers will be allocated to the A or B group. To achieve allocation concealment, the bottles will be sealed and we will be assured from the similarity of appearance and their weight. The randomization process will be performed by an individual other than the investigators to reduce the probable bias, Blinding description: Blinding will be done in the case of participants and the main investigator. For blinding, placebo capsules will be prepared in the same size, shape, bottle with taurine capsules. Bottles will be encoded  A or B. Also, the researcher is unaware of the type of capsules. Therefore, that participants and researcher will be blinded at the selection step and information collection.</study_design>
