Description

During Phase 1 of this study, we will enroll at least n=40 total subjects who are healthy individuals. Subjects will be randomized to one of two study groups and followed throughout the duration of the 8-week NMT intervention period (Figure 3). This study will focus on the assessment of healthy individuals between the ages of 18-40. We will review any and all adverse events as a research team to determine the best course of action should an adverse event occur. For Phase 2 of this study, we will enroll at least n=30 total subjects who are healthy individuals to be tested only at a singular initial visit (Figure 3). This phase of the study will not include randomization or any form of follow-up. This study will focus on the one-time assessment of healthy individuals between the ages of 18-40. We will review all adverse events as a research team to determine the best course of action should an adverse event occur.
