Interventions
Spermidine
Spermidine (10 mg/day) administered as two oral capsules taken after breakfast. The spermidine is extracted from North American high-selenium wheat germ using a 100:1 concentration process. Each capsule contains 5 mg of spermidine, with a total daily dose of 10 mg. The intervention duration is 1 month.
Placebo
Placebo capsules are identical in appearance, color, size, packaging, and taste to the spermidine capsules. Each capsule is filled with microcrystalline cellulose and contains no active ingredients. Participants will take two placebo capsules orally after breakfast daily for a duration of 1 month. The placebo is packaged and blinded by an independent pharmacy according to a randomization code to ensure double-blind implementation.
