Lunch and dinner meals, prepared
by the kitchen, were low in phenols and polyphenols and
provided 5 h and 10 h post-administration. At the end of 10 h, subjects
were allowed to leave the HNRCA with 24 h urine collection
materials. Subjects returned to the HNRCA the following morning
after having fasted for 12 h. Fasting blood and urine (excreted since
the 10 h intervention) were collected within 24 h of administering
the CJC. Vital signs, including blood pressure, temperature, pulse
and respiration rate, were monitored regularly following CJC
consumption.
