Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Reliability of the Change in Triglycerides after a High-Fat Meal
Participants complete two fat tolerance tests. In each test, triglycerides are measured in blood immediately before and 4 hours after consumption of a high-fat meal. The reliability/agreement in measuring the triglyceride change between the 2 tests is being determined.
Reliability of the Change in Glucose after Ingestion of a Glucose Solution
Participants complete two glucose tolerance tests. In each test, glucose is measured in blood immediately before and 2 hours after consumption of a pure glucose solution. The reliability/agreement in measuring the glucose change between the 2 tests is being determined.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study aims to evaluate the reliability of a shortened fat tolerance test ("abbreviated fat tolerance test", or "AFTT") for measuring post-meal lipids in human blood. The reliability of the triglyceride results in this test are compared to the reliability of the glucose results from an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), a widely-used and clinically accepted metabolic test.

Intervention Description
Participant consumes 75 grams of pure glucose. Blood is drawn before and 2 hours after this drink to measure glucose.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Reliability of the Change in Triglycerides after a High-Fat Meal
Description
Participants complete two fat tolerance tests. In each test, triglycerides are measured in blood immediately before and 4 hours after consumption of a high-fat meal. The reliability/agreement in measuring the triglyceride change between the 2 tests is being determined.
Time Frame
The two fat tolerance tests are separated by 1 week.
Title
