Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of red meat intake on occurrence of non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

During Visit 1, blood samples will be collected to assess iron status. During Visit 2, after an overnight fast, participant will be given a standardized meal (rice and potatoes) with a portion of cooked beef (200 g). Blood samples will be collected right before and 2 hour after the meal for NTBI analysis.

NTBI concentration before and after meal consumption will be compared.
