Nutritional composition is expressed in the percentage (wt/wt) of the different nutrients. The contribution of each nutrient to the energy content of the diets is expressed both in kilocalories and percentage of total calories. Data were provided by the manufactures (CoD: R70, Lantmännen; WeD: D12079B, Research Diets Inc.). (This table is related to Materials and Methods.)
