Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postprandial triglycerides (obtained from venous blood sample)[Time point: 0 min (baseline) prior to starting meal, and 180 min after starting meal];Postprandial insulin levels (obtained from venous blood sample)[Time point: 0 min (baseline) prior to starting meal, and 180 min after starting meal]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postprandial blood glucose (obtained from venous blood sample)[Time point: 0 min (baseline) prior to starting meal, and 180 min after starting meal];Inflammatory markers such as c-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Blood samples for CRP test will be collected in heparin vacutainer and centrifuged to obtain plasma, and analysed using latex-enhanced nephelometry. Blood samples for IL-6 measurement will be collected in EDTA vacutainer and centrifuged to obtain plasma, and analysed using the IL-6 ELISA kit. [Time point: 0 min (baseline) prior to starting meal, and 180 min after starting meal]
