Brief Summary
|
This study will enroll 24 healthy volunteers aged 21–35 years who engage in moderate physical activity and develop muscle soreness after gym-based exercise. Eligible participants will be trained individuals who have not exercised in the past two months and have no musculoskeletal pathology. The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Zing95 curcuminoids through multiple parameters, including changes in muscle pain, tenderness, swelling, jump performance, fatigue, lean body mass, creatine kinase, CRP, LDH, VO 2 max, and endurance. Assessments will be conducted from baseline through Day 7, with additional evaluation of paracetamol or NSAID use, tolerability, satisfaction, and adverse events. |
