Results are mean (SD), TAG = triglycerides.
Differences between groups (All) were assessed by using two-factor ANOVA. There was no significant diet-gender interaction.
Differences between groups for men were assessed by using one-factor ANOVA.
Differences between groups for women were assessed by using one-factor ANOVA.
Values in the same row with different superscript letters are significantly different (Bonferroni post hoc test).
% change from baseline after 12 weeks intervention.
