¹ Separable lean tissue includes all lean muscle and organ tissue. ² At least one of the composite values used to calculate the mean was below the limit of detection for the corresponding nutrient. ³ A single dash indicates that manganese was below the limit of detection (limit of detection: 0.20 mcg/g).
