Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if the level of Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) is altered after taking curcumin, omega-3, and vitamin D supplements (COD) for 3 months. It will also determine the safety and tolerability of COD in the study population. This trial aims to answer the following questions: Does COD consumption lower the level of ACPA in the study participants? What side effects will participants have after taking COD? This pilot study will have an open label pre-post design and study participants will know that they are using each of the three supplements. Participants will: Take the combination of supplements following an evening meal, for 84 consecutive days. Visit the clinic/study team twice during the study duration on days 0 and 84 for checkups and tests. Keep a diary of study treatment consumption.
