简要总结
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of LC-Plasma on the innate and acquired immune systems, including the activation of pDCs, which play a role in virus elimination, as well as to assess its efficacy in reducing clinical symptoms of upper respiratory infectious diseases in healthy adults. Researchers will compare LC-Plasma to placebo, participants will take a tablet containing LC-Plasma or placebo daily for 4 weeks.
