      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: Allocation sequence will be generated using a computer program. In this software, a code will be assigned to each group (Zingiber oil, Sesame oil and Control) and sample size will be written. Randomization will be done in blocks of three. Since the generated sequence is produced by research assistant, the main researcher is not informed of the assigned codes to the groups. The generated codes will be written on papers, then concealed sequentially inside opaque lookalike containers, Blinding description: The study is double-blinded in which neither the researcher nor the participants know about the received treatment. The research assistant, who generates the allocation sequence, will conceal the code of related intervention inside opaque lookalike containers. The participants will get into the study (block size 3). The first participant will randomly choose one of the containers. Then, the other two participants will do the same and choose between the left containers. After choosing one of the containers by the participant, research assistant will read the concealed intervention code inside the container. Then, research assistant will give the related intervention to the main researcher to try it on the participant.</study_design>
