This study explores how eating pecans affects certain blood markers. Pecans are known to improve heart health, and we want to find a reliable way to measure pecan intake in the blood. We will study a substance called urolithins, which are made when our gut processes ellagic acid found in pecans. We will compare urolithins to tocopherols, a type of vitamin E that also changes after eating pecans. Participants will visit the lab three times: first for a screening, and then for two test meals. One test meal includes pecans and the other uses whipped cream. Blood samples will be taken several times up to 48 hours after each meal. The study is looking for healthy individuals aged 18-30 with a specific body mass index (BMI). Those with certain health conditions or on certain medications cannot participate.

• Study involves 3 visits and is conducted at the University of Georgia.
• Participants will consume two different test meals with a break between sessions.
• This study pays close attention to how the body processes pecans.
