TG (mg/dl)	44 ± 3a	360 ± 40b	121 ± 15a*	337 ± 46b	125 ± 26a*
NEFA (mmol/l)	0.28 ± 0.02a	0.92 ± 0.06b	0.57 ± 0.05c	0.89 ± 0.06b	0.53 ± 0.07c

Values are means ± SE. Values with like letters are significantly different from each other. P values for HbA1c vs. L-Sed were as follows: O-EndEx, P = 0.01; O-Met, P = 0.05; O-E+M, P = 0.52.

^*P = 0.08 and 0.07 for O-EndEx vs. L-Sed and O-E+M vs. L-Sed comparisons, respectively.
