      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Participants will have equal chance to be assigned to studied groups. We will use random digits table to make random sequence. After determining the first number, we will continue downward and allocate even numbers to cases and odd numbers to placebo. As in small sample sizes, it would be probable that one group be completed earlier, if one group completed earlier, we will allocate the other assigned numbers to other group. A person out of study group will put her figure on one digit of the table with closed eyes and according to assumed agreement will go downward through the table and write the numbers down until completing the sample size in each group. Code "A" will allocated to even numbers and considered as "intervention group" and code "B" will allocated to odd numbers and considered as "placebo group". At the end we will have the sequence of 80 specific numbers and A&amp;B codes. A person out of study team will put the numbers in sealed packets till the time of sampling, Blinding description: It is a double blind study. A third person out of study team have the sequence of codes that provide the team with sealed pockets containing allocation code (supplement and placebo) at the time of sampling. The following groups of people: participants, research team including principle investigator, data collectors, and outcome assessors will be blind.</study_design>
