Exclusion Criteria

1. Weight change of more than 3kg in the preceding 2 months
2. Current smokers
3. Substance abuse
4. Excess alcohol intake
5. Pregnancy
6. Diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2)
7. Cardiovascular disease

10. Kidney disease
11. Liver disease
12. Pancreatitis
13. Food allergy
14. Use of medications likely to interfere with energy metabolism, appetite regulation and hormonal imbalance, including but not exclusive to: antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), steroids or other immunosuppressive medication, androgens, phenytoin, erythromycin or thyroid hormones

Subjects with the above conditions/taking the above medications would have an altered pattern of hormones and inflammatory molecules because of their disease process which may lead to misleading results.
