      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Participants will be assigned randomly blocked blocks with 6 and 9 blocks and 1: 1: 1 assignment to three groups (two intervention groups and one control group) using RAS software, Blinding description: To hide the allocation, the same black, opaque, and back-numbered glasses (assignment sequences) inside them, either the curcumin capsule or the vitamin E capsule or the placebo capsule, will be used to hide the allocation. Preparation of glasses by an unoccupied person will be done in sampling and collecting data and analyzing them according to the assignment sequence. The first person will be in the condition of glass No. 1 and will continue until the sampling is completed. In all three groups, stratification based on BMI will be done alik.</study_design>
