Effect of ZenRest™ Lotus Seed & Rice Germ Extract Blend on Sleep Quality in Menopausal Women

25. Juni 2026 aktualisiert von: Nutraland USA, Inc.

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 6-Week Pilot Study to Evaluate the Effect of ZenRest™ Lotus Seed & Rice Germ Extract Blend on Sleep Quality in Menopausal Women

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ZenRest™ (Lotus Seed & Rice Germ Extract Blend) can help improve sleep quality in menopausal women aged 40-65 with mild-to-moderate sleep complaints.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does taking ZenRest™ daily improve subjective, participant-reported sleep quality compared to a placebo?
  • Does ZenRest™ improve objective sleep metrics, specifically sleep efficiency, when monitored via an Oura Ring wearable device?
  • Does the extract improve secondary sleep and lifestyle factors, such as insomnia severity, daytime sleepiness, and vitality? Researchers will compare ZenRest™ to a placebo (a look-alike capsule that contains no active ingredients) to see if the botanical blend has a measurable effect on sleep quality.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

ZenRest™ is a proprietary blend of Lotus Seed Extract (Nelumbo nucifera) and Rice Germ Extract (Oryza sativa). This trial evaluates the physiological effects of continuous daily intake (50 mg/day) over a 6-week period, specifically targeting menopausal women with mild-to-moderate sleep complaints. The study utilizes a fully decentralized clinical trial framework. Behavior and physiological metrics are collected remotely utilizing home-based, integrated smart ring wearable tracking methodologies to minimize participant burden. In addition to evaluating subjective sleep indices by measuring changes in the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) from baseline to end of study, the protocol investigates continuous objective sleep architecture by assessing daily wearable ring data. This secondary analysis utilizes the Oura Ring platform to evaluate advanced parameters, including sleep efficiency, total sleep time, deep sleep and REM sleep duration, sleep latency, and resting heart rate and heart rate variability dynamics.

  • Access to a smartphone or computer to complete eConsent and digital questionnaires
  • Able to provide informed consent via the Alethios eConsent platform

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Current use of prescription sleep medications (benzodiazepines, non-benzodiazepine hypnotics, doxepin, suvorexant) within 30 days of enrollment
  • Current use of melatonin supplements at doses >1 mg/day within 14 days of enrollment
  • Diagnosis of a clinically significant sleep disorder requiring treatment (obstructive sleep apnea unless adequately treated and stable, restless legs syndrome, narcolepsy)
  • Diagnosis of a major psychiatric disorder currently requiring pharmacological treatment
  • Current use of hormone replacement therapy initiated within 90 days of enrollment, or any planned changes to HRT during the study (stable long-term HRT is acceptable)
