D₂O enrichment characteristics with 4 different sodium beverages

	Na0	Na20	Na40	Na60
T 1/2 (min)	16 ± 2 min	13 ± 2 min	12 ± 1 min	11 ± 2
AUC (δ‰ vs. VSMOW.60 min)	13843 ± 785	15054 ± 674	15162 ± 467	15810 ± 719
PE (δ‰ vs. VSMOW)	352 ± 17	356 ± 14	348 ± 15	354 ± 18
TTP (min)	23 ± 3	19 ± 3	18 ± 2	16 ± 3

Half time (t1/2), area under the curve for first 60 min (AUC), plateau enrichment (PE) and Time to Plateau (TTP) with no sodium (Na0), 20 mmol/L sodium (Na20), 40 mmol/L sodium (Na40) and 60 mmol/L sodium (Na60) in a 6% glucose solution. There were no statistical differences between trials.
