1

Values are presented as mean (SEM) or (SED) for differences between week 16 and week 4.

2

Differences at baseline between groups were assessed by using two-factor ANOVA on log-transformed values.

3

Differences in concentration change from baseline between the dietary intervention groups were assessed by using two-factor ANOVA on log-transformed values.

4

Represents differences calculated as mean concentration at week 16 – mean concentration at week 4.
