简要总结
Following a meal, in nondiabetic individuals, blood glucose rises to peak at 1hr and returns to baseline in 2 - 3 hours. In T2DM, this peak is higher and prolonged. Meal plans for persons with T2DM should comprise evenly spaced, complex carbohydrate portions in order to avoid post-prandial glucose spikes. Researchers have developed an expanded line of Caribbean-flavoured, low-calorie meal-replacement shakes which have been formulated to match the macronutrient and caloric content of a commercially available brand. In this trial investigators aim to (1) examine the change in glucose levels post intake of Caribbean vs the commercially available brand and (2) to conduct a comparative sensory analysis of the two shakes.

盲法说明
The participants will be blinded to the intervention as the shakes will be given in unmarked containers - however as the flavours are very different it is likely that participants will be able to tell them apart. Data analysts will be blinded.

研究组 & 干预措施
Shake 1 then Shake 2
Participants will consume 1 bottle of shake 1 and take their normal morning medications. After this 3ml blood samples will be taken via the cannula at 30mins, 60mins and 120 mins post meal. During the waiting period between phlebotomy, a sensory analysis questionnaire which asks participants to rate the taste, appearance, texture and smell of the product. After a 1-week washout period, the entire protocol will be repeated using Shake 2.
