White blood cell differential
White blood cell differential was measured in study participants at the start of the study (week 1), after 4 weeks of supplementation (week 5), and after a 2-week washout period (week 7). Values are expressed as mean ± S.E.n = 27.
Week 1 | Week 5 | Week 7 | |
---|---|---|---|
Lymphocytes (per mm3) | 2.06 ± 0.08 | 2.21 ± 0.01a | 2.19 ± 0.12 |
Monocytes (per mm3) | 0.54 ± 0.03 | 0.52 ± 0.03 | 0.53 ± 0.04 |
Eosinophils (per mm3) | 0.18 ± 0.04 | 0.2 ± 0.03 | 0.2 ± 0.03 |
Basophils (per mm3) | 0.04 ± 0.01 | 0.04 ± 0.01 | 0.05 ± 0.01 |
Neutrophils (×108/dL serum) | 3.69 ± 0.39 | 4.43 ± 0.49a | 4.39 ± 0.38 |
