The envelopes will be opened in the order in which the participants enter this stage from number 1, and an envelope containing the supplement will be provided to the participant for one month. Outcome assessors, the person responsible for statistical analysis of the data, and the respondents will be blinded to the type of supplement received until the end of the study.</study_design>
