This study evaluates how Fast Bar(TM), a specially formulated energy bar, when consumed with coffee or tea, affects the physiological condition in participants after an overnight fasting. Participants will fast for 19 hours (Fast Group), consume a Fast Bar in the night (Night Bar Group) or in the morning (Bar+Coffee and Bar+Tea Groups) after an approximately 15-hour overnight fasting. Participants will be assessed for physiological parameters associated with fasting.
