The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n* Does a 12-week nutritional supplementation with myo-inositol, berberine, cinnamon, and chromium lead to significant changes in body composition (e.g. body mass index, body fat composition) in females aged 38-55 compared to placebo?\n* Does a 12-week nutritional supplementation with myo-inositol, berberine, cinnamon, and chromium lead to significant changes in small molecules (metabolites) in plasma and urine, menopause-related symptoms, and physical performance (e.g. grip strength) in females aged 38-55 compared to placebo? Researchers will compare the nutritional supplement to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no nutritional supplement) to see if the intervention works to change body composition in females aged 38-55.\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Sign a consent form before any procedures begin\n* Attend two visits to the clinical research facility at Southampton General Hospital over 12 weeks.\n* Fast before visit's and provide blood and urine samples at each visit\n* Undergo measurements at each visit, including waist and hip circumferences, grip and leg strength, and body composition.\n* Complete questionnaires about general health, menopause-related changes, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and diet.\n* Take 1 capsule 3 times a day at the onset of a meal (once in the morning, once at midday, and once in the evening) for the first 10 days.\n* Take 3 capsules 3 times a day at the onset of a meal (once in the morning, once at midday, and once in the evening) from day 11 to day 84.\n* Record supplement intake in a daily compliance diary during the study",[85,86],"Perimenopausal Women","Body Composition Changes",[88,89,90,91],"Perimenopause","menopause","metabolism","metabolomics","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-05-29",{"date":95,"type":96},"2026-06-03","ACTUAL",{"date":98,"type":79},"2026-06-01",{"date":100,"type":79},"2026-12",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
