Summary

This trial will test if a novel multi-ingredient supplement can improve male fertility by targeting age-related cell pathways.

Who is the study for?

What is being tested?
The study is testing a new multi-ingredient supplement (Fertility Enhancer) against a placebo to see if it improves sperm function in subfertile men by targeting oxidative stress and other age-related cell issues over three months.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not specified here, but supplements could cause allergic reactions, gastrointestinal discomfort or interact with other medications.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Active multi-ingredient supplement (Fertility Enhancer; FE)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Volunteers will be randomized in a double-blinded fashion into the experimental treatment group, which entails daily supplementation of an active multi-ingredient supplement designed to enhance fertility (Fertility Enhancer; FE) for 3 months.
Group II: Inactive placebo (Placebo; PLA)Placebo Group1 Intervention
Volunteers will be randomized in a double-blinded fashion into a placebo group, which entails daily supplementation of a calorie-matched, inactive placebo (Placebo; PLA) identical in flavor to the active supplement for 3 months.
