Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Probiotics
Participants will receive a probiotic strip (3g/strip) daily alongside their standard clinical treatment for a continuous 12-week period.
Serum and fecal samples were collected at the beginning and end of the study to evaluate the effects of probiotic consumption on immune markers, metabolites, and gut microbiota before and after administration.
Placebo Comparator: Maltodextrin
Participants will take a daily placebo strip (3g/strip) in addition to their regular clinical treatment over a continuous 12-week period.
