First seen Aug 05, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether taking antioxidant-rich supplements for 12 weeks can improve skin and blood carotenoid levels, antioxidant status, and cardiometabolic health in overweight and obese adults aged 21-70. Participants maintain their usual diet while adding either LifePak Element or LifePak Optimal daily. The study measures changes in skin carotenoid scores, blood carotenoid concentrations, and total antioxidant capacity to see if these supplements offer measurable benefits.
