FMD, flow mediated dilatation, ICAM, intracellular adhesion molecule, ADMA, asymetric dimethylarginine. All variables are presented as mean (SD).
p1, p-value (student’s t-test) for comparison of baseline with postprandial value of the sesame oil group
p2, p-value (student’s t-test) for comparison of postprandial values between the control (as a whole) and the sesame oil group
