Phase 2
Design
Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: Participants will be randomized to receive either encapsulated xanthohumol in a rice protein vehicle, or an identical capsule containing vehicle alone.Masking: Triple (Participant, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)Masking Description: Randomization will occur in up to 8 blocks of 4 based on biological sex. Initial randomization series will be generated using readily available random sequence generators designed to do so. A series of sequential envelopes will be generated, each containing the allocation for one participant. Envelopes will be opaque and signed across the seal. The randomization "code" will be kept in a sealed envelope with a signature across the label and dated the day of creation. Study product and comparator (placebo) will be compounded and placed in identical opaque capsules outside the institution.Primary Purpose: Treatment

Participation Requirements

Age
Between 21 years and 50 years

This is a double-masked, placebo controlled, randomized clinical trial of xanthohumol, which is a constituent of hops (Humulus lupulus). Hops and its constituents have a long history of use for a variety of conditions. However, knowledge is limited regarding the measurable biological markers of human exposure, and the role of xanthohumol metabolism by microorganisms present in the gut, particularly in individuals with gut pathologies such as Crohn's Disease. This information is necessary for the development of xanthohumol as a potential therapeutic intervention in such conditions.
