UCLA researchers looking for healthy individuals (age 45-60) to participate in a study
investigating whether an anti-inflammatory medication can impact daily life, including mental
and physical health, and the immune system.
Everyday for four weeks, participants will take either an anti-inflammatory medication
(naproxen) twice daily, or a placebo pill twice daily. Participants will also answer daily
questions during the 4-week period. Participants will also come to the UCLA campus twice for
blood draws, to fill out questionnaires, and complete a few tasks on the computer: once prior
to the 4-week period and once immediately after the 4-week period.
