Joint discomfort and reduced mobility are associated with impaired physical function, pain interference, and decreased quality of life. Chronic low-grade inflammation and connective tissue degeneration contribute to limitations in daily activities and recovery.
This study evaluates resO™ Bone and Joint Support Postbiotic, a microbiome-informed supplement containing heat-inactivated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum RSB11® HI combined with glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), Boswellia serrata extract, curcumin extract, bromelain, and vitamin D3.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study conducted remotely using electronic data capture. Approximately 40 participants aged 18-75 years with self-reported joint discomfort, stiffness, or reduced mobility will be randomized 1:1 to receive either resO™ or placebo for 4 weeks.
Primary endpoints include changes from baseline to Week 4 in:
PROMIS Physical Function T-score PROMIS Pain Interference T-score
Secondary endpoints include:
Pain intensity Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) Activity limitation assessments Musculoskeletal recovery assessments Rescue medication use
Safety and tolerability will be assessed through adverse event monitoring and gastrointestinal tolerability questionnaires.
