NCT ID NCT07642869
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether taking a daily multivitamin and mineral supplement can improve how your cells produce energy, which is linked to healthy aging. Researchers will give 150 adults aged 40-60 either one of two multivitamin formulas or a placebo pill for a set period. They will measure changes in blood cell function, nutrient levels, and physical abilities to see if supplements make a difference.
