      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Supportive, Randomization description: 46 patients are randomly assigned to each group (A/B) using block randomization stratified by age (category 1: under 30/category 2: over 30) and gender (male/female). Random sequences were generated by generating a block random list from www.sealedenvelope.com in 12 blocks of size 4. Treatment allocation of participants, study personnel and outcome wishes were masked and concealed in sealed, opaque numbered envelopes with sequential publication. Patients were randomly divided into two groups in a ratio of 1:1, Blinding description: Due to the fact that the placebo capsule is similar to melatonin in terms of appearance, color, smell, taste, and shape, the people participating in the experiment will not be able to differentiate between the melatonin capsule and the placebo. Blinding of the researcher will be done through the codes included in the packaging of the supplements.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: Intervention group: Before starting the main intervention, all the selected people enter the Run-in period for two weeks, to collect complete information about the patients' food intake. Then, using a general questionnaire, information about age, gender, socio-economic status, education level, history of diseases and hospitalization, surgery and history of taking medicines, supplements and duration of disease will be taken from all people. At the beginning of the study and at the end of the 6th and 12th weeks of the study, in order to investigate the intervening factors of the diet, 24-hour food memory, which includes two non-holiday days and one holiday day, will be taken from the patients through interviews. At the end of the run-in period, people in the intervention group will receive 10 mg melatonin supplement (Karen company) in the form of two 5 mg supplements per day. Intervention 2: Control group: Control group: Before starting the main intervention, all the selected people enter the Run-in period for two weeks, to collect complete information about the patients' food intake. Then, using a general questionnaire, information about age, gender, socio-economic status, education level, history of diseases and hospitalization, surgery and history of taking medicines, supplements and duration of disease will be taken from all people. At the beginning of the study and at the end of the fifth and tenth weeks of the study, in order to investigate the intervening factors of the diet, 24-hour food memory, which includes two non-holiday days and one holiday day, will be taken from the patients through interviews. At the end of the run-in period, people in the control group will receive 2 placebo capsules, which are similar to melatonin in terms of appearance, color, smell, taste and shape, for 10 weeks.</i_freetext>
