Assessment

Primary outcomes

1. High frequency component-1 (HFC-1) at 12 weeks after intervention (12w) [Pre and post visual display terminals workload (VDT load): The change from pre to post VDT load] (Measured value)

Key secondary outcomes

1.HFC-1 at 12w [Pre and post VDT load] (Change and percentage (%) change from screening (before intervention; Scr))
2.HFC-1 at 12w [Pre VDT load, post VDT load] (Measured value, change and %-change from Scr)
3."Sleepiness on rising," "initiation and maintenance of sleep," "frequent dreaming," "refreshing," "sleep length," and each item in the OSA sleep inventory MA version at 12w (Measured value, changes and %-changes from Scr)
4.Defecation frequency, number of days with defecation, and amount of defecation in period 2~13* (Measured value, changes and %-changes from period 1*)
*Period 1: 7 days prior to Scr
Period 2~13: Periods separated by 7 days from the start of intervention
5.Individuals whose stool shape, stool smell, and exhilarating feeling of defecation improved by >=1 scales in period 2~13 compared to period 1
6."Fatigue," "hand coldness," and "foot coldness" in the subjective symptoms questionnaire (visual analogue scale; VAS) at 12w (Measured value, changes and %-changes from Scr)
7."Shoulder stiffness," "neck stiffness," "eye dryness," and "concentration" in the subjective symptom questionnaire (VAS) at 12w, [Pre and post VDT load, pre VDT load, post VDT load] (Measured value, changes and %-changes from Scr)
8."Stress of VDT" in the subjective symptom questionnaire (VAS) at 12w (Measured value, and the changes and %-changes from Scr)
9.Individuals who response to each scale of "I'm concerned about the return odor after consuming the test products" in the subjective symptoms questionnaire (Likert scale) at 12w
10.Individuals whose response of "I'm concerned about halitosis" or "My skin is acting up" in the subjective symptom questionnaire (Likert scale) improved by >=1 scales from Scr to 12w
11.Total cholesterol (Cho), high density lipoprotein-Cho, low density lipoprotein-Cho, and triglyceride at 12w (Measured value, changes and %-changes from Scr)
12.Systolic and diastolic blood pressure at 12w (Measured value, changes and %-changes from Scr)
