	Total cholesterol		Triglycerides		LDL cholesterol		HDL cholesterol
	β Coefficient	P value	β Coefficient	P value	β Coefficient	P value	β Coefficient	P value
Added sugars (g/d)	0.0276	0.5995	0.1090	0.0206	0.0318	0.5259	−0.0127	0.5516

¹Models were linear regressions with statistically significant associations at P < 0.05. All analyses were controlled for the following covariates: sex, race-ethnicity (dummy coded), socioeconomic status, Tanner pubertal status, percentage body fat, total physical activity, and total energy intake. In the above models, the sample size for which all variables were available was 210.
