Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
At each visit, participants will consume a study meal. The order in which the study meals will be consumed will be randomly allocated. There will be a washout period of 1 week between visits. The study meals are as follows:
1. Fat: 100mL double cream, providing 45g (96%) fat, 29g saturated fat, 1740kJ.
2. Carbohydrate: 104g high energy drink, providing 100% carbohydrate, 1740kJ.
3. Control: 100mL water
Participants will be asked to consume each meal within a 15 minute timeframe.
On arrival baseline lung function will be performed followed by the administration of a short acting B2-agonist (salbutamol 400ug, inhaled via a spacer). The participant will then consume the study meal.
Participants who complete Study 1 may also participate in Study 2.
