Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a novel strain of heat-killed Mycolicibacterium that is being considered by the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) as candidate species and type strain "Candidatus Mycolicibacterium petrae" KGA-10 (KGA-10) is safe and well tolerated for healthy adults. This novel Mycolicibacterium species is also referred to as NeuroAlly and MTC 0012. The questions it aims to answer are: 1) is KGA-10 associated with adverse side effects and 2) is KGA-10 well tolerated.

Researchers will compare daily KGA-10 (1 mg mixed with microcrystalline cellulose in capsule form) to a placebo (microcrystalline cellulose in capsule form, but contains no KGA-10) to examine any adverse side effects and tolerability of KGA-10 relative to placebo.

Participants will take KGA-10 or a placebo everyday for 1 week and keep a daily log of their supplement intake that includes the time of day. Participants will complete the Generic Assessment of Side Effects - Probiotics (GASE-P)\* survey to assess side effects experienced during the trial both related and not related to the supplement at baseline, 2 hrs following their first dose, 24 hrs following their first dose, and on day-7. Participants will complete the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) survey to assess tolerability/satisfaction of the supplement at 2 hrs following their first dose, 24 hrs following their first dose, and on day-7.

\*Survey was modified by replacing the work "probiotic" with "postbiotic" for accuracy.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Heat-killed Mycolicibacterium petrae KGA-10 (NeuroAlly)

Heat-killed bacteria are considered postbiotics. At the time of registering this clinical trial, Mycolicibacterium petrae KGA-10 is being consider by the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) as candidate species and type strain therefore the proper nomenclature is "Candidatus Mycolicibacterium petrae" KGA-10.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Placebo (microcrystalline cellulose)

Microcrystalline cellulose in size 1 capsule
