研究概览

简要总结

The PRO Health Study is a single-center, prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of streptococcus-containing supplementation in healthy adults.

详细描述

Upon enrollment, healthy adults will enter a 1-week lead-in period which serves as an opportunity to collect baseline saliva samples and complete daily logs. Subjects that meet eligibility criteria on Day 7 will be randomized into 1 of 2 groups, receiving either a placebo-control or a streptococcus-containing probiotic supplement. Supplementation will begin on Day 8 and will continue for a total of 14 consecutive days. Participants will be observed for an additional 2 weeks following cessation of supplementation. The total duration of the study will be approximately 5 weeks. Saliva samples will be collected on 7 occasions and participants will be asked to complete questionnaires and daily diet and health logs throughout the course of the study.
