      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization will be performed with simple method and random numbers generated by computer software (Stat Trek software) which choose the random numbers. Then, we consider the specific numbers for both groups for example: the even numbers are for intervention group and the odd numbers are for the placebo group, Blinding description: Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the clinic, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will be assigned the participants to the numbered bottles of supplements. Supplements and placebos are in the same packaging at the Barij Essence pharmaceutical company. Only the code is written on the packages. Patients and researcher do not know the type of intervention and after analyzing the data, packet codes are decoded.</study_design>
