Table 3.
Sugars intake of 53 study participants who had complete urine collections from both study diets
| Total sugars intake (g)a | Fructose intake (g)b | Sucrose intake (g) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| High GL diet | 146 ± 30 (82 - 213) | 55 ± 13 (26 - 82) | 65 ± 15 (27 - 110) |
| Low GL diet | 205 ± 40 (119 - 295) | 106 ± 22 (60 - 167) | 65 ± 13 (28 - 94) |
| Overall | 176 ± 46 (82 - 295) | 80 ± 31 (26 - 167) | 65 ± 14 (27 - 110) |
Values are means ± SD (range)
a
Total sugars intake was calculated as the sum of dietary monosaccharides (galactose, glucose, and fructose) and disaccharides (sucrose, lactose, and maltose) on the last day of the study diet corresponding to the day of urine collection
b
Fructose intake included both intrinsic and extrinsic fructose and was calculated as fructose plus half of sucrose on the last day of the study diet corresponding to the day of urine collection
