Brief Summary

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

Participants will visit the study site twice in a fasting state. Participants asked to consume one of the two study products in a random order. Participants will consume one serving of the study product (T = 0 minutes). Study product intake should take place within 10 minutes (+/-5 minutes). Two blood samples will be taken at baseline and then at 14 timepoints after product intake. A follow up call will take place 7 (-3/+7) days after the final study visit.
