You will visit the university clinic four times over four weeks—once per week. Each visit, you'll arrive in the morning after fasting overnight, have a quick blood sample taken, eat a 30-gram cookie (either a regular one or one with the special ingredient), and then have small finger-prick blood samples taken at timed intervals (at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes). You'll also have basic measurements taken like height, weight, and waist size at your first visit.
