5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Randomized, controlled, double-blind, double-blind clinical trial, with three parallel arms depending on the product consumed (experimental product dose 1 and dose 2 and placebo product) and single-center, to measure the efficacy of a botanical supplement on the prevention of non-joint pain.
Detailed Description
Subjects who meet the selection criteria will be randomly assigned to each of the study groups (investigational product dose 1 or dose 2, or placebo, depending on the group to which they have been assigned). The product to be consumed is a Botanical Extract. Participants will consume the product for 84 days. It should be taken half an hour before breakfast, two capsules per day. The study subjects will have to make 5 visits to the laboratory. On the first and last visit, they will have their blood drawn, their sleep quality will be evaluated and they will complete a series of questionnaires to evaluate their quality of life and type of back pain. In the rest of the visits they will only have to take the tests on paper.
