Genistein to protect heart health in HIV
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a daily supplement called genistein, derived from soy, can help reduce the risk of heart problems in people living with HIV. It aims to see if genistein can improve blood vessel function and lower inflammation, potentially protecting your heart.
