Could a simple enzyme supplement calm essential tremors?
NCT ID NCT07238725
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a dietary supplement containing aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) enzyme can ease tremors in people with essential tremor. Forty adults will take the supplement twice daily for three months. Researchers will measure changes in tremor severity and daily function using standard rating scales.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) enzyme dietary supplement
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a simple dietary supplement to help reduce tremor severity and improve daily activities for people with essential tremor.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small study with only 40 participants and no placebo group, so results may not be reliable or generalizable. The supplement may have no real effect on tremors.
