| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nutrition supplement group | Experimental | The nutrition supplement group received the composite polyphenols intervention agent. The main active components of the composite polyphenols intervention agent include a mixture of 43 types of polyphenols. The composite polyphenols intervention agent is powders encapsulated in sachets, each containing 155 mg composite polyphenols. The dosage was three times daily, with a total intake of 465mg of composite polyphenols. The intervention agent should be taken one sachet each time, dissolved in warm water and taken during or after meals in the morning, afternoon, and evening. |
|
| placebo group | Placebo Comparator | The placebo group received the placebo. The placebo mainly consists of resistant dextrin and erythritol. Apart from the contents, the appearance, color, and consumption method of the placebo are the same as those of the intervention agent. Participants were not informed of their group allocation in any way. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Fecal microplastics (MPs) levels as assessed by Py-GC/MS | Py-GC/MS method for detecting microplastic (MPs) levels in feces of research subjects. The concentration of fecal microplastics will be reported in units of μ g/g dry weight (μ g/g dw) | up to 2 months |
| Fecal metagenomic sequencing as sequenced using the Illumina NovaSeq/HiSeq Xten platform | DNA was extracted from fecal samples using the FastPure Stool DNA Isolation Kit (Magnetic bead) (MJYH, Shanghai, China). The DNA fragments were amplified via bridge PCR and sequenced using the Illumina NovaSeq/HiSeq Xten platform (Illumina, USA). Raw data were processed using Fastp and BWA software for quality control and removal of host DNA sequences. The abundance of genes in each sample was described using RPKM. | up to 2 months |
| Blood Metabolomics as assessed by UPLC-TripleTOF | The pretreated samples were analyzed using an Ultra-high Performance Liquid Chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TripleTOF) system (AB SCIEX). The samples were separated using a BEH C18 chromatography column (100 mm*2.1 mm i.d., 1.8 µm) and detected via mass spectrometry. The mass spectrometry signal was acquired in positive and negative ion scanning modes, with a mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) range of 50-1000. Raw data were imported into the Progenesis QI software (Waters Corporation, Milford, USA) for processing, generating a data matrix containing retention time, m/z, and peak intensity. The MS and MS/MS spectra were matched with the HMDB (http://www.hmdb.ca/) and Metlin (https://metlin.scripps.edu/) databases to identify metabolites. | About 2 months |
| Inflammatory cytokines as assesed by Luminex technology | The levels of 10 inflammatory cytokines in blood plasma samples were detected using Luminex technology, including IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-13, TNF-α, and IFN-γ. Inflammatory cytokine indicators are described in pg/ml units. | About 2 months |

Random numbers were generated using IBM SPSS Statistics 26.0, with the random seed set to the date of the day. Eligible participants were sorted based on the size of the generated random numbers, with the first 50% of the ranked list assigned to the placebo group and the last 50% assigned to the intervention group. Participants were allocated randomly in equal proportions, and the random list was validated by a statistician.

The on-site implementation personnel and those responsible for coordinating the study only received the study number of the subjects, and were unaware of the intervention group allocation of the subjects. The subjects were also unaware of their intervention allocation. A copy of the sealed envelope of the non blinded study number for each subject is provided only to the study supervisor. Before the completion of data collection, the investigators and researchers kept the blind method for treatment allocation. All subjects were monitored in a double-blind way throughout the study period, and the subjects could not distinguish their own grouping by asking questions or from appearance and texture.
