Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Glucose LevelsBaseline and 8 weeks

Blood will be obtained to measure glucose after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.

C-Peptide LevelBaseline and 8 weeks

Blood will be obtained to measure c-peptide level after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.

Insulin LevelBaseline and 8 weeks

Blood will be obtained to measure insulin level after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.
