Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Lower saliva insulin after drinking water compared to juice; compared to no drink
Secondary outcome measures
Different untargeted metabolomic profile after drinking water compared to juice; and after drinking water compared to no drink
Higher saliva buffering capacity after drinking water than after apple juice or no drink
Higher saliva pH (potential of hydrogen) after drinking water than after apple juice or no drink
