简要总结

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Immune X can help prevent common cold events in healthy adults who have a history of upper respiratory tract infections. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does Immune X reduce the proportion of participants who experience at least one clinically confirmed common cold event during the study period?
  • Does Immune X affect the number, duration, and severity of common cold events?

Researchers will compare Immune X to a placebo (a look-alike capsule containing inactive ingredients) to see if Immune X helps prevent common cold events.

Participants will:

  • Take Immune X or placebo daily for 16 weeks during the winter season.
  • Attend study visits at the beginning and end of the study and complete questionnaires and symptom assessments throughout the study.
  • Record cold symptoms, medications, and other study information using a smartphone application.
  • Provide blood and stool samples during the study.
