Fermented Papaya Preparation (FPP)
Fermented Papaya Preparation (FPP) is administered in this study as a dietary supplement aimed at assessing its potential benefits for cognitive function and driving performance in older adults. Participants consume FPP as a 3-gram powder dose taken orally three times daily (morning, afternoon, evening) for a total of 8 weeks. FPP is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may influence cognitive domains essential for safe driving, such as attention, memory, reaction time, and executive function. This intervention is specifically designed to explore FPP's potential impact on reducing driving errors and improving psychomotor skills in a high-fidelity driving simulation environment.
