Markers of immune senescence will include change in the expression of the senescence markers CD28 and CD57 on the surface of peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. We will measure the percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes that are CD28-/CD57- or CD28-/CD57+. We will subtract the percentage obtained at Week 12 from the baseline percentage to calculate the change scores.

Participants were randomized to one of two arms:
Intervention arm = fish oil Control arm = placebo.

All gelcaps were overencapsulated to mask their contents
