Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Physical and psychological stress on military personnel during training and operational missions can suppress immune function. Creating superficial skin wounds via suction blisters can be used to detect changes in immune function. The goals of this research are to: 1) identify changes in immune function (blood measures and healing time of skin wounds) in response to sleep restriction; and, 2) test the influence of a multi-nutrient beverage and healthy bacteria (i.e., probiotics) on immune function (blood measures and healing time of skin wounds) in response to sleep restriction.
