NCT06931977

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether four dietary supplements and lifestyle changes can affect gene expression and blood markers in healthy volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. 1.How does daily ingestion of dietary supplements affect gene expression and hsCRP and vitamin D levels measured in blood?
  2. 2.How does daily ingestion of dietary supplements affect anthropometric measurements, sleep and physical activity, and gut microbiome composition?
  3. 3.How does daily ingestion of dietary supplements affect cognitive and subjective health parameters?
  4. 4.Do prescriptive lifestyle modifications affect the supplements' efficacy?
  5. 5.Is there a difference in outcomes between participants who take all four study supplements and those who take three study supplements with a placebo?
  6. 6.Is ingesting dietary supplements for 12 weeks safe, as measured by laboratory tests and adverse events?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Gene expression

    Gene expression analysis refers to a genome-wide quantification of methylation. EPIC850k array will be used for methylation analysis. This represents approximately 900,000 gene locations. The main feature performed is a differential methylation analysis to determine what has significantly changed from one time point to another.

    12 weeks

  • Vitamin D 25-hydroxy (ng/mL)

    Serum marker for Vitamin D levels

    12 weeks

  • High sensitivity C-reactive protein (mg/L)

    Serum marker for hsCRP levels

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (68)

  • Albumin (g/dL)

  • Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (mg/dL)

    12 weeks

  • Creatinine (mg/dL)

Study Arms (2)

Supplement System + Copaiba softgels

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this arm will take one VMG sachet, three EOM softgels, and one copaiba softgel in the morning with food. At least eight hours later, they will take one PBR capsule and one copabia softgel with food. They will follow this dosing regimen every day for 12 weeks.

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants in this arm will take one VMG sachet, three EOM softgels, and one placebo softgel in the morning with food. At least eight hours later, they will take one PBR capsule and one placebo softgel with food. They will follow this dosing regimen every day for 12 weeks.

Interventions

The supplement system consists of: * dōTERRA VMG+ Whole-Food Nutrient Complex (VMG) sachets * dōTERRA EO Mega+ Essential Oil Omega Complex (EOM) softgels * dōTERRA PB Restore ProBiome Complex (PBR) capsules Which will also be taken with: • dōTERRA Copaiba Essential Oil (CEO) softgels VMG is a powdered nutritional drink packaged in individual sachets. The powder is a blend of food powders/extracts, vitamins and minerals, probiotics, essential oils, and sweeteners. EOM is a softgel containing fish oil and wild orange essential oil. PBR is a capsule containing a mix of pre-, pro-, and post-biotics and bacteriophages. CEO is a softgel containing Copaifera (copaiba) essential oil and extra virgin olive oil. Participants will also be asked to implement lifestyle changes. They will be asked to try to get at least 8 hours of sleep, eat at least three servings of fruit/vegetables daily, and exercise at least 30 minutes every day.
