Note: Estimates of change are expressed for within-group differences from baseline to the indicated time point. Race P values represent baseline differences between racial groups among dietary components. Time-group P values represent time-by-group interactions comparing the degree of change from baseline to the indicated time point between study conditions. Time-group-race P values represent time-by-group-by-race interactions comparing the degree of change from baseline to the indicated time points among racial groups and between study conditions.

SD = standard deviation.
