      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Before starting the study, all participants will be explained that they will be divided into two intervention (A) and control (B) groups.
In this trial, we had two groups of 4 blocks (including 2 participants in drug group A and 2 participants in placebo group B). Production tools are also used from random sequence generation software (random allocation software) that this sequence generation software gives items that are able to generate a random sequences by block building method on simple structures.
Blocked randomization is for the purpose of making sure that precisely equal number of participants are included in the intervention and control group at consecutive but equal time intervals.
The randomization process is done by methodology consultant and the clinical researchers are not aware of the randomization method. Concealment Allocation refers to the method used to perform a random sequence on participants in the study, in such a way that the allocated group is not known before the allocation of the individual.
By using opaque and sealed envelopes with a random sequence (Sequentially numbered, seal, opaque envelopes), in this method, each of the random sequences created is recorded on a card, and the cards are placed inside the envelopes in order They are placed. In order to maintain a random sequence, the outer surface of the envelopes is numbered in the same order. Finally, the lid of the letter envelopes is glued and placed in a box, Blinding description: In this study, blinding will be done for participants and researchers. In this way, the medicine and placebo will be placed in the same packages by a person outside the study, which will be labeled with A and B codes. The given codes will be provided to researchers after statistical analysis and when writing the article. To blind the participants and reduce their bias, it was explained to them only at the beginning of the study that they will receive one of two types of intervention and they will not be told the exact type of supplement.</study_design>
