Summary
This study tests whether Pycnogenol, a natural extract from French maritime pine bark, can reduce symptoms of Gulf War Illness (GWI) like fatigue, pain, and brain fog. Researchers believe inflammation in the body and brain causes these symptoms, and Pycnogenol may help calm that inflammation. The study will enroll 20 male veterans who have already participated in a related trial and will track changes in physical and mental functioning over 12 months.
