E % is the content of nutrient in relation to the total energy in the diet. Values are means ±s.e.m. The subjects' daily habitual diet was calculated from a 4 day dietary record, and their daily experimental diet intake was calculated from 7 week dietary diaries. FAT, fat-rich diet; CHO, carbohydrate-rich diet; P:S ratio, ratio between polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids.
