Brief Summary

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

The goal of this randomized controlled double-blind parallel-group interventional trial is to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with molecular hydrogen and pyrroloquinoline quinone in elderly. The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) whether the supplementation affects biomarkers of mitochondrial function in serum, and (2) whether the supplementation affects cognition and brain metabolism. The participants will be subjected to take the dietary supplement during 6 weeks.
