      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: For random allocation of study participants to study groups, computer software RAS (Random Allocation Software) will be used through 4 and 8 glass block  and allocation ratio of 1: 1, Blinding description: For concealment of the allocation, the same envelopes will be used in the opaque package to be numbered sequentially. Therefore, no participant, researcher, and statistical analyst will be aware of the type of intervention received. Envelopes will be numbered from 1 to 120. The first envelope will be given to the first person who will be included in the study and will continue to complete the sampling.</study_design>
