Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Insulin sensitivity as assessed by meal tolerance tests. <br>Plasma glucose will be measured using an automated spectrophotometric analyzer and serum insulin will be measured by commercial ELISA kits[Blood samples are taken fasting, and then 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after consumption of each test meal.]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Triglyceride concentrations as assessed by meal tolerance tests. Triglycerides will be measured using an automated spectrophotometric analyser.[Blood samples are taken fasting, and then 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after consumption of each test meal.];C-peptide concentrations as assessed by meal tolerance tests. C-peptide will be measured by commercial ELISA kits.[Blood samples are taken fasting, and then 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 minutes after consumption of each test meal.]
