      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Prevention, Randomization description: In this study, stratified randomization will be used. First, the participants will be stratified based on age and sex (male or female) and then they will be allocated to intervention or placebo group based on the blocks of size 4. Blocks of size 4 have 10 modes(AABB, ABAB, BBAA, BABA, AAAB, BBBA, AAAA, BBBB, ABBB, BAAA), Blinding description: In this study, the original researcher who is responsible for randomization, Giving supplements and drafting the article is blind.
Also, participants are aware of their participation in the research project but they do not know which study group they are in.
The sphygmocor apparatus operator, which is responsible for evaluating arterial stiffness indices, is also blind in this study.</study_design>
