HF = High-fat diet; HF WP = High-fat diet Whole Pecan; HF PP = High-fat diet with Polyphenol Pecan. Phenolic content of whole pecan = 1908.03 mg phenolics/100 g kernels and pecan phenolic extract = 389 mg phenolics/g extract. Phenolic content of 3PP = 3.6 mg phenolics/g feed, 6PP = 6 mg phenolics/g feed and HF WP = 5.72 mg phenolics/g feed.
