      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Supportive, Randomization description: Patients are divided into intervention and control groups by random block method. Allocation of the samples to two groups with random permutation block design will be two treatments with blocks of four. In this way, the letter A is considered for the intervention group and the letter B is considered for the control group. Then we write all the alternating combinations of the letters A, A, B, and B, which are 6 different combinations, on 6 cards in this order: AABB, ABBA, ABAB, BAAB, BABA, BBAA, then a digit is randomly selected from 1 to 6. and continue this process until the sample volume reaches the quorum, Blinding description: In this study patients, researchers and data analysts don't know which group of patients will use the NBS. Physician and clinicians team, due to the prevention of possible side effects in order to consume this product, know about the group who use the powder.‎.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: Patients in the intervention group, in addition to the standard treatment panel, receive Nutrition Bio-Shield (NBS) powder as follows: the amount of NBS 500 mg capsule is 4.5 g daily in three doses: 1.5 g in the Morning, 1.5 g in the Afternoon, and 1.5 g Night, 14 days. Intervention 2: Control group: In addition to the standard treatment regimen, patients in the control group also receive placebo capsules that are given in the morning, noon, and night.</i_freetext>
