Radicle Recharge: A Study of Health and Wellness Products on Energy Levels and Other Health Outcomes

Radicle Science264 enrolled

Overview

A randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial assessing the immediate impact of non-caffeinated supplements on energy levels and associated health outcomes

This is a randomized, double blind. placebo-controlled study conducted with adult participants (study volunteers, citizen scientists), at least 21 years of age at the time of consent and attending the Supply Side West Meeting (SSW) this year. Eligible participants will (1) endorse a desire for more energy and (2) express acceptance in taking a product and not knowing its formulation until the end of the study. Participants that report a known contraindication or with well-established, significant safety concerns due to illness and/or medication(s) will be excluded. Participants that report a known allergy to any possible ingredient they may be exposed to in one of the study arms will be excluded. Participants will take their assigned study product at a Radicle booth, after enrolling. Participant reported outcomes (PROs) are collected electronically from eligible participants at baseline (before study product consumption, and for a period of 5 hours after consuming their study product.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in energy

Mean difference in energy score as assessed by Energy Visual Analog Scale (VAS) (scale 0 - 10; where 0 is no energy and 10 is more than enough energy)

Time frame: 5 hours

Secondary Outcomes

Change in cognitive function

Mean difference in cognitive function score as assessed by Patient Reported Outcome Measurement System (PROMIS) Cognitive Function - Abilities 4A (scale 4-20; where lower scores correspond to worse cognitive function). Modified timing to, "since walking this morning"

Time frame: 5 hours

Change in fatigue

Mean difference in fatigue score as assessed by Fatigue VAS (scale 0 - 10; where 0 is no fatigue and 10 is completely exhausted)

Time frame: 5 hours

Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in energy

Likelihood of experiencing MCID in energy score as assessed by Energy VAS

Time frame: 5 hours

Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in cognitive function

Likelihood of experiencing MCID in cognitive function score as assessed by PROMIS Cognitive Function - Abilities 4A

Time frame: 5 hours

Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in fatigue

Likelihood of experiencing MCID in fatigue score as assessed by Fatigue VAS

Time frame: 5 hours
