After 4 weeks, the subjects consumed copper and thiamine supplements for 2 weeks each with a 1 week washout period. Formal speech assessments were done pre/post baseline and at the end of each supplement intake. Participants were not informed about the nature of the supplements and the investigator was blinded to the order of the supplements.
