1 All values are means ± SEM. Values with different superscripts were significantly different, with p < 0.05 determined by t-test. All intakes are based on food and beverage consumption and supplements. To calculate the %RDA, means of each nutrient consumed are compared to their respective RDA multiplied by 100. Abbreviations: MUFA, monounsaturated fatty acid; PUFA, polyunsaturated fatty acid; and RDA, recommended dietary allowance. 2 Total and saturated fat intakes in g were converted to kcal (9 kcal/g fat) to compare intakes to the acceptable macronutrient distribution range.
