Official title
A Novel Probiotic Fermented Milk Drink to Improve Gut and Brain Health in Older Floridians and Their Caregivers
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial will evaluate the effects of a probiotic fermented milk (PFM) drink on gut and brain health in individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) and their caregivers. Up to 40 participants will be enrolled. Participants will be randomly assigned to consume either the PFM drink or a matched placebo daily for 30 days. The primary objective is to determine whether PFM consumption improves gut microbiome abnormalities. Secondary objectives include evaluating effects on nutrient absorption, gut microbiome diversity and composition, and systemic inflammation. The study will also explore relationships between changes in nutrient absorption, microbiome profiles, inflammation, and behavioral outcomes in participants with ADRD and their caregivers. Each participant will participate in the study for approximately 30 days. This pilot study is intended to generate preliminary clinical and biological data regarding the potential role of probiotic nutrition in supporting gut and brain health and to inform the design of future larger clinical trials.
