Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Platelet aggregation before and after consuming vegatables in various food structures. there will be two treatments (liquid form of vegetable (approximately 250mL) and solid form (approximately 100g)of vegetable). Meal (breakfast) consumed once only over a period of approximately 20 minutes. The wash-out period will be 48 hours.

Baseline, 2, 5, 8 and 24 hours after intervention commencement.
Secondary outcome [1] 276640 0
To see the effect of food structure on the bioavailability of vegetable derived compounds by measuring the levels of the selected compounds in plasma and urine samples.
Timepoint [1] 276640 0
Baseline, 2,5,8 and 24 hours after intervention commencement.
