Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The dose response will be evaluated for the effectiveness of each test treatment in three different dosages that is 2.5 g Versus 5 g Versus 10 g.
22 subjects will be enrolled per dose per test treatment to complete 20 subjects per dose per test treatment.
There are four different test treatments as mentioned below will be tested during study.
* Test Treatment A: VEGCOL™️ (Veg Collagen Peptide)
* Test Treatment B: PROCOL (Bovine Collagen Peptide)
* Test Treatment C: AQUACOL (Fish/Marine Collagen Peptide)
* Test Treatment D: CALCOL (Chicken Collagen Peptide) Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet of daily Route of Administration: Oral Administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water.
Considering proof of science study, a sufficient number of adult subjects with an age group of 30 - 50 years old (i) having mild to moderate crows' feet wrinkles near to eye area and (ii) mild to moderate joints pain, swelling, stiffness and decreased range of motion (iii) having complaints of hair fall, decreased hair growth, brittle nails will be recruited/enrolled.
In Bovine Arm, out of 66 subjects, a few subjects with osteoarthritis patients having present complaints of pain and stiffness in joints will be enrolled.
The collagen peptides effects of all 4 variants will be evaluated in enrolled subjects with mild to moderate acne.
The potential subjects will be screened as per the inclusion \& exclusion criteria only after obtaining written informed consent from the subjects. The subjects will be instructed to visit the facility as per the below visits.
* Visit 01 (Day -04): Screening, Baseline evaluations
* Visit 02 (Day 01): Enrolment, Hair Growth Rate measurement, Evaluations
* Visit 03 (Day 10): Treatment Period, Evaluations
* Visit 04 (Day 30): Treatment Period, Evaluations
* Visit 05 (Day 57): Treatment Period, Evaluations, Tattoo, Hair growth measurement
* Visit 06 (Day 60): Evaluations, End of Study Visit
Subjects will be pre-screened by the screening department of NovoBliss Research. Subjects will be telephonically contacted by recruiting department prior to the enrolment visit. Subjects will be instructed during screening (prior to enrolment) not to wear any facial makeup during study visits to the facility. The study will be conducted in four different groups considering four different arms of test treatments.
Assessment of safety and efficacy parameters will be done before test treatment usage on Day 1, and will be compared with after test treatments usage on Day 10 (+2 Days), Day 30 (+2 Days), and Day 60 (+2 Days) within treatments and between treatments, between three dosages as listed-below.
* Skin Elasticity: DermaLab®Combo (Right cheek)
* Deep Skin Hydration: MoitureMeterEPiD (Right cheek)
* Skin Moisture for Skin Barrier Function: Vapometer (Right Cheek)
* Crow's feet area wrinkles, fine lines, skin texture - roughness, dryness, wrinkles, smoothness: Visioscan (C+K Instrument)
* Improvement in Glogau Skin Age : Dermatological evaluation
* Improvement in PGA Dermatologist Scoring using Griffiths Scale - Skin dryness, redness, fine wrinkles/lines, coarse wrinkling/lines, laxity, roughness, and sallowness : Dermatological evaluation
* Change of the PGA score for assessment of the signs of brittle nails
* Change of the PGA score for assessment of Acne
* Hair Strength: Hair Pull test
* Hair Fall Reduction: 60-second hair count (Hair Combing Method)
* Hair Growth, Thickness, Density: CASLite Nova (Phototrichogram)
* A:T Ratio (Hair Growth Cycle): Pluck Test - Trichogram (Microscopic Evaluation)
* Hight, Weight, BMI - Anthropometry
* Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ) - Deep and Sound Sleep
* Hedonic Questionnaires - about product perception and consumer feedback. - Skin elasticity, suppleness, deep and sound sleep, digestion and gut health, joint health, nail, and hair health
* Change in Pain According to VAS (0-10 cm) for arthritis complaints
* Consumption of Rescue Medication for osteoarthritis patients/subjects
* Change in muscles strength - as assessed by the sum of the handgrip, elbow flexion and extension, and knee flexion and extension strength by the dynamometer
* Digital Photographs: Facial photographs \[Left, Center, Right\] and Nails photographs before test treatment usage and after test treatment usage.

SUPPORTIVE_CARE
DOUBLE
Subjects will be randomly allocated to one of the treatment groups and one of treatment dose, as per the randomization code. This is single-blind study and blinding will be kept wherein neither the evaluator staff nor the Investigator shall be aware of the test treatment or test treatment dose allocation (except for osteoarthritis patients for Bovine Test Treatment). To maintain blinding, the study staff who involves in treatment dispensing and distribution will not be involved in any other study-related activities.
Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
VEGCOL™️ (Veg Collagen Peptide)
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water
VEGCOL helps in providing the necessary nutrition needed for the body to produce collagen. Vegan collagen gives a lighter feel on consumption compared to any other collagen and increases the elasticity of the skin and makes skin supple. VEGCOL has more amino acids than animal derived Collagen which makes it very ideal to consume not only in Vegetarian populated countries like in India but around the world. Pepsin, a digestive enzyme, is added to help structure the building blocks into collagen molecules with the exact structure of human collagen.
Veg Collagen Peptide
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water
PROCOL (Bovine Collagen Peptide)
Bovine collagen is a naturally occurring protein present in the connective tissue, bones, cartilage, and hides of cows.
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water.
Bovine Collagen Peptide
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water
AQUACOL (Fish | Marine Collagen Peptide)
Marine Collagen is made from Fish Skin which delays the signs of aging such as wrinkles, Joint issues and weakness.
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water.
Fish | Marine Collagen Peptide
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water
CALCOL (Chicken Collagen Peptide)
Chicken collagen is used to treat joint pain associated with many types of arthritis and surgery, as well as back pain, neck pain, and pain following injury. Chicken collagen works by causing participants' body to produce substances that fight inflammation and pain. It also contains chondroitin and glucosamine, two compounds that help rebuild cartilage. That's why chicken collagen can provide some amazing benefits for participants' gut, immune system, skin, and more.
Mode of Usage: 1 scoop/sachet daily Route of Administration: Oral administration with a glassful (approx. 250 mL) of water.
Chicken Collagen Peptide
