Results

In the per-protocol set, the test food group showed significant improvement in OSA-MA Factor I (morning sleepiness) at 2 and 4 weeks compared with the placebo group. Fitbit data also showed increased sleep duration at 4 and 5 weeks. In contrast, in the placebo group, OSA-MA Factors I and V (sleep duration) worsened at 4 and 7 weeks, whereas the test food group remained stable. These findings suggest maintenance of sleep homeostasis under psychological stress.
