That is awesome that you were able to get funding for a large study of vitamin supplements. I wish there were more studies like this to identify whether supplements are beneficial beyond placebo (or potentially harmful).

One question: blind or double blind? Does the distributor also not know which product is being given to the patient?

I look forward to the results!
