DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Whey protein-enriched milk fat globule membrane supplement

Participants will consume a high-fat, mixed meal containing approximately 75 g of test fat (refined palm oil), supplemented with a whey protein-enriched milk fat globule membrane (providing \~5 g of milk polar lipids) powdered ingredient. The experimental and placebo meals will be isoenergetic and protein-matched, and will be administered in a randomised order, with a washout period of at least 21 days between sessions.
