Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Kelulut Honey Improves Insulin Resistance when used as carbo-loading preoperatively

    • To compare blood sugar levels between patients receiving Kelulut Honey and Carborie pre, intra, and post operatively.

    48 Hours

  • Kelulut Honey would be completely cleared within 2 hours after consumption when used for carbo-loading preoperatively.

    • To compare Residual Gastric Volume between patients receiving Kelulut Honey and Carborie preoperatively.

    2 hours
