Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. CON, normal chow control diet; HFP, high-fat palm oil diet; HFL, high-fat lard diet; AUCg, area under the glucose curve; AUCi, area under the insulin curve; HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance; AUCd2g, area under the 2H2-glucose curve (a factor 2 is necessary for comparison of area under the 2H2-glucose curve to area under the glucose curve because the glucose injected was only 50 % enriched in 2H2-glucose); EN, glucose enrichment (% 2H2-glucose of total glucose); AUCEN, area under the EN curve. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 vs. CON; †† p < 0.01 vs. HFP
