Detailed Description:
This study requires two visits. Once determined eligible by the study criteria, during the first visit the participant will be randomly placed to receive one of two high-fat meals. The participant will receive the other study meal during the second visit. At each visit, brachial artery ultrasounds will be performed before and 3 hours after the meal is eaten. The sample size is 50 subjects. This study will be conducted at the Clinical Research Center at Tufts Medical Center.
