What this Trial Is About
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a natural-origin nutritional supplement, combined with a functional exercise program, can improve psycho-emotional, cognitive, functional, and neuroendocrine health in perimenopausal women. The study will also help determine the safety of this combined intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the combined intervention improve mood, sleep quality, menopausal symptoms, and cognitive performance? * Does it enhance physical function and neuroendocrine regulation? Researchers will compare the supplement to a placebo. All participants will follow the same supervised functional exercise program. Participants will: * Take a daily nutritional supplement or placebo for 10 weeks * Attend three weekly supervised functional exercise sessions (45-60 minutes each) * Complete pre- and post-intervention evaluations including questionnaires, physical and cognitive tests, and blood samples for biomarker analysis.
