Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to examine whether specific genes (e.g. SLC16A11) affect how human beings respond to food and a medication that is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes. The food the investigators will be studying is specially prepared to contain protein, carbohydrate, and fat. The drug the investigators are studying is metformin. The investigators hypothesize that physiological responses to the meal and to the medication will differ between carriers and non-carriers of genes associated with type 2 diabetes.

Primary Outcome

Primary endpoint point: 2 hr glucose after the MMTT Secondary endpoints: 2 hr insulin after the MMTT, change in glucose, insulin, and amino acid and lipid metabolites from baseline to 60 and 120 minutes after the MMTT; change in GLP-1 concentrations from baseline to 5,10, 15, 30, 60, and 120 minutes after the MMTT; and glucose, insulin, and GLP-1 AUC over 120 minutes
