Liquid Mixed Meal Tolerance Test
A liquid mixed meal tolerance test will occur in Module 1 and Module 3. For this test, participants will drink two servings of EnsureĀ® Original, vanilla flavor. The meal will also contain acetaminophen (Tylenol) which will show how the smoothie moves through the participant's gut.
Diet-Specific Mixed Meal Tolerance Test
The diet-specific mixed meal tolerance test is administered at the end of each dietary intervention period in Modules 2 and 3. The meal test is a breakfast meal similar to the one eaten on the 14-day diets. Thus, three test meals will be used, one for each of the three test diets (Diet A, Diet B, Diet C). The energy (kcal) level of the breakfast meal will be based on each participant's diet prescription. The nutritional composition diet-specific MMTT will be the same test meal for all participants.
