Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Human breast milk has been widely studied in babies, as have certain elements of breast milk in adults. None of those studies, however, address the effectiveness of raw breast milk in adults. Furthermore, Adventa Bioscience's proprietary process of converting breast milk into a powder which is then encapsulated has not been studied. Early customers of the breast milk capsule, Trulacta, have experienced incredible results; from increased sleep, reduced pain and bloating, and reduction or elimination of symptoms caused by severe diseases. An early analysis of Trulacta in partnership with a company 4Life, has shown that the milk powder in Trulacta has a high immunologic activity level with Natural Killer cells in controlled environment.

The purpose of this non-randomized, prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of 90 days of supplementation with a human breast milk supplement on sleep quality, low-grade chronic inflammation, immuno-modulation, metabolic health, and epigenetic aging.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Epigenetic Age
Time Frame: Testing will compare results from baseline to completion of 3 months of the supplement
DNA methylation testing completed with 850kEPIC array
Testing will compare results from baseline to completion of 3 months of the supplement

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sleep Quality
Time Frame: Assessment will compare baseline with testing completed after 3 months of the supplement
Patients will complete the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) at baseline, monthly, and after completing the intervention
Assessment will compare baseline with testing completed after 3 months of the supplement
