Plasma total homocysteine concentrations at fasting and fed state before and after dietary vitamin B-6 restriction in healthy men and women1
| Baseline | Restricted | |
| Plasma total homocysteine at fasting state, μmol/L | 7.7 ± 0.5 | 7.5 ± 0.5 |
| Plasma total homocysteine at fed state,2μmol/L | 8.7 ± 0.5#x2021 | 9.2 ± 0.7#x2021# |
| Change from fasting to fed state, % | 13.7 ± 2.5 | 22.3 ± 2.5 |

Values are means ± SEM, = 10. Symbols indicate: ‡different from fasting state, P < 0.001 (2-way repeated-measures ANOVA); # interaction between fasting/fed and before/after vitamin B-6 restriction, P = 0.05 (2-way repeated-measures ANOVA).
2
Concentration at fed state is the mean of the times 6, 7.5, and/or 9 h of infusion.
