Cells throughout our bodies taste. They respond in certain ways to what the taste means is coming.

Ibuprofen and naproxen blunt these receptors, blunting those responses, leading to a reduction in glucose metabolism from what would have otherwise happened. It can even reduce blood sugar, strangely.

Altered taste seems to be the least concerning side effect.

both ibuprofen and naproxen can increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure, especially with prolonged use or in individuals with pre-existing heart conditions.

Ibuprofen and naproxen can both increase the risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) problems, including ulcers, bleeding, and perforation of the stomach or intestines, and these problems can occur at any time and without warning.

ibuprofen and naproxen are both very dangerous drugs, ESPECIALLY for anyone with heart or stomach issues ...

basically, anyone with heart disease or stomach disease is playing russian roulette by taking ibuprofen or naproxen ...

My nightly routine to keep rheumatoid arthritis in my spine at bay was 800 mg of ibuprofen. A blood test in January 2024 showed I was anemic and apparently had a pretty signficant gastric bleed going on. I stopped ibuprofen and turmeric immediately. Have had none since. Sleeping is unpleasant with the arthritis pain. A trans-oral endoscopy in March 2024 found a healing duodenal ulcer. Likely the origin of the gastric bleed. In June 2024, the Whipple procedure removed the duodenum completely. No risk of that bleeding again! I'm still sans ibuprofen.
