About this trial
This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Avance eZZe drink with liposomal technology in improving sleep quality. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the placebo group, Avance eZZe drink group, and Avance eZZe drink without liposomal group, with 25 participants in each group. On the day of the experiment (day 0), participants are required to fill out questionnaires assessing sleep disorders and stress condition, and use a sleep monitoring system to track their sleep and autonomic nervous system conditions. Subsequently, participants will be given the experimental samples and instructed to consume them 1 hour before sleep daily for 28 days. Follow-up assessments will be conducted in the day-1, day-14 and day-28, participants are required to fill out questionnaires assessing sleep disorders and stress condition, and use a sleep monitoring system to track their sleep and autonomic nervous system conditions.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Sleep monitoring
The difference of electrocardiosignal between two specific points on the body surface will be used to reflect sleep state.
Sleeping quality
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) will be utilized to assess sleeping quality. The minimum value is 0, the maximum value is 42. The higher the score, the worse the outcome.
