Fasting morning cortisol changes across glycemic-status groups. 1. FMC changes across glycemic status groups (defined at baseline) by time, Baseline, 6-months and 18 months (end of intervention). 2. Diabetic defined as fasting glucose >=126 or HbA1c >=6.5 or receiving medical treatment for diabetes. 3. Pre-diabetic defined as 126>fasting glucose >=100 or 6.5>HbA1c>=5.7. 4. P between groups was analyzed in an ANCOVA model adjusted for Δweight, age, and gender. 5. * Significant (p<0.05) within change vs. baseline at 0.05; Diabetic and normoglycemic groups had significantly elevated FMC levels in 6-months and pre-diabetic groups had significantly reduced FMC levels.
