Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of the study is to elucidate the beneficial effect of a dietary supplement with phenolic compounds in patients with OA versus ascorbic acid.

The analysis of the data is expected to clarify the role of the new supplement as one with a positive effect on OA-related biomarkers, on functional abilities and on the quality of life of patients with OA.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

A randomized double-blind clinical intervention with two parallel groups lasting 3 months is proposed to elucidate the beneficial effect of a novel food supplement on OA.

Participants will undergo clinical and biochemical testing and will provide a complete medical history and history of the disease. Demographics, smoking, alcohol consumption, eating habits and physical activity, pain, and functional inability to enroll in the study will also be recorded.
