I am pleased to present the findings of our recent clinical study on KaraCalm™, a novel polyherbal dietary supplement designed to support sleep and manage stress. Our team conducted a rigorous randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate its efficacy and safety.
Study Overview
We enrolled 60 healthy volunteers and randomly assigned them to two groups of 30 each. One group received 500 mg of KaraCalm™ daily, while the other received a placebo. The study duration was 56 days, during which we closely monitored various parameters.
Key Outcomes
Our primary focus was on sleep quality and stress levels. We utilized Actiwatch for sleep analysis and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) for stress evaluation. Additionally, we measured serum cortisol and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels as secondary endpoints.
Significant Findings
- Improved Sleep Quality:
Our Actiwatch data revealed that the KaraCalm™ group experienced notable improvements in overall sleep quality. We observed positive changes in total sleep time, onset latency, wake after sleep onset minutes, and the number of awakenings. - Stress Reduction:
The PSS scores in the KaraCalm™ group showed a significant decrease from baseline to the end of the study, indicating a reduction in perceived stress levels. - Biochemical Markers:
We found substantial reductions in both serum cortisol and hs-CRP levels in the KaraCalm™ group. These biochemical changes further corroborate the stress-reducing effects of the supplement. - Safety Profile:
Throughout the study period, we conducted thorough safety analyses and found no significant adverse changes in the intervention group, suggesting a favorable safety profile for KaraCalm™.
Implications and Conclusion
Our study provides strong evidence that KaraCalm™ can be considered a safe and effective herbal dietary supplement for improving sleep quality and reducing stress. These findings have important implications for individuals seeking natural alternatives for stress management and sleep improvement.
Moving forward, I believe further research could explore the long-term effects of KaraCalm™ and its potential applications in specific populations with sleep disorders or chronic stress. As always, we remain committed to advancing our understanding of natural supplements and their role in promoting overall well-being.
