The study evaluates the improvement of sleep, emotion, and skin by standardizing the use of the blend (Tea Theanine Casein Hydrolysate Pressed Candy, whose active ingredients include Tea Theanine, Casein Hydrolysate, and Saffron Extract). This is a randomized, double-blind trial for Chinese people aged 20-55. The change of sleep, emotion, skin, and other related indicators of 90 participants after taking Tea Theanine Casein Hydrolysate Pressed Candy, whose active ingredients include tea theanine, casein hydrolysate, and saffron extract, was evaluated through a 28 days product placement test (sub study 1), and the emotional change of 70 participants after taking Tea Theanine Casein Hydrolysate Pressed Candy was evaluated through an EEG test (sub study 2). Participants who meet the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to use the experimental product or the placebo control. In sub study 1, 90 participants completed a 7-day baseline period, a 28-day testing period (T1d, T7d, and T28d). In sub study 2, 71 participants completed a single on-site test.
