Effect of Magnesium-, Vitamin C- and Grape Seed Extract-Enriched Date Bars on Perceived Stress and Salivary Cortisol Levels in Young Women
Sponsor: K.G. Razumovsky Moscow State University of Technologies and Management
Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of a 4-week daily consumption of a functional date bar enriched with magnesium, vitamin C, and grape seed extract on perceived stress and salivary cortisol levels in healthy young women. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving the enriched bar or a control group receiving a placebo bar identical in appearance and taste. Primary outcomes include changes in salivary cortisol levels and perceived stress (PSS-14).
