Nutritional Supplementation for Bruising
Trial Summary
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you must not use products containing aluminum, iron, proton pump inhibitors, or topical retinol. If you are on other medications, you need to have been on a stable dose for the last 3 months before starting the trial.
What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Cyruta Plus, High Dose Vitamin C, Low Dose Vitamin C for bruising?
Research shows that Vitamin C, a component of the treatment, has been studied for its protective effects on skin health, such as reducing skin toxicity from radiation therapy in cancer patients. This suggests that Vitamin C might help improve skin conditions, which could be relevant for treating bruising.12345
Is there safety data for Vitamin C supplementation in humans?
How does the treatment Cyruta Plus differ from other treatments for bruising?
Cyruta Plus is unique because it is a nutritional supplement that may include a combination of vitamins and antioxidants, which can help protect against oxidative damage and support overall health. Unlike standard treatments for bruising, which may focus on topical applications or medications, Cyruta Plus potentially offers a systemic approach by enhancing the body's nutritional status.910111213
What is the purpose of this trial?
Purpura is a macule or papule of blood in the skin. It is mostly seen in mature skin that is often prone to significant bruising. Small lesions of less than 5 mm are called petechiae and larger ones, found mostly in subcutaneous tissue, are called ecchymosis. Actinic purpura occurs almost exclusively in elderly populations. This single-blind randomized clinical trial evaluates the effect of an 8-week nutritional supplement intervention in comparison with isolated vitamin C supplements on actinic purpura in older adults. We will enroll thirty (30) otherwise healthy participants, both male and female, aged 55 years and older. Changes in participants' skin condition will be assessed at visit 1 (baseline), visit 2 (4-week), and visit 3 (8-week) using questionnaires, standard digital photography, and clinical grading of the skin lesions.
