Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine whether there are differences in postprandial
endothelial function following a high-AGE(Advanced Glycation End-products) meal vs. a low-AGE
meal. We also intend to investigate if the therapy with 1050mg Benfotiamine for 3 days
protects against the postulated deterioration of endothelial function after a high-AGE meal
in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
