      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In order to Randomize the treatment between the groups, Permuted Block Randomization Method with the Size 4, will be used. Considering the Time of Entry into the Study and Considering that A is (Intervention Group) and B is (Placebo Group), A Part of the Random Allocation will be in the Following Order:
Randomization will be done with SAS software version 9.
Seed: 253569775886591 
Block sizes: 4 
Actual list length: 86 
block identifier, block size, sequence within block, treatment 
•	1, 4, 1, Group B
•	1, 4, 2, Group A
•	1, 4, 3, Group B
•	1, 4, 4, Group A
•	2, 4, 1, Group B
•	2, 4, 2, Group A
•	2, 4, 3, Group A
Assignment of Groups will be performed through Closed Envelopes. The Resident Implementing the Project will register the Participants and the Allocation Sequence will be done by A Statistician through the Relevant Softwares, Blinding description: Researcher and participants are blind in this study (double-blind). The Researcher does not know which participant is in the intervention or control group. The participant does not know whether he/ she is in the intervention or control group. Both groups will receive sachet with the same shape and color with different contents. Intervention and control sachets will be noted as A and B by a pharmacist unaware about the research and will be given to the researcher.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: Synbiotic (Kidilact sachet of Zist-Takhmir company with the power of 10^9 CFU, containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus casei, Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium breve, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium lactis, Sterptococcus thermophilus Suchets and Fructooligosaccharide) is given to the intervention's group participants in same pre-weighed powder form foil packages. Everyday, participants mix one sachet weighing 1 gram with 250ml water and drink it 15-20 mins before the evening meal. For the first 2 weeks, participants are asked to take only half-dose to reduce gastrointestinal side effects, after which they take the full-dose for the remaining 10 weeks. Intervention 2: Control group: Placebo (Product of Zist-Takhmir company, Containing Lactose monohydrate 80 Mesh, Inulin, Talc, Magnesium stearate, Colloidal silicon dioxide, Sucralose, Corn flour and Xanthan gum) is given to the control's group participants in same pre-weighed powder form foil packages. Everyday, participants mix one sachet weighing 1 gram with 250ml water and drink it 15-20 mins before the evening meal. For the first 2 weeks, participants are asked to take only half-dose to reduce gastrointestinal side effects, after which they take the full-dose for the remaining 10 weeks.</i_freetext>
