Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Secretion of inflammation-related cytokines by cultured human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected before and 6 h after milk consumption and stimulated with or without Concanavalin A (Con A) was assessed using a customized Milliplex Map Human Cytokine/Chemokine Magnetic Bead Panel Immunoassay<br> 2.
