Effect of the treatments on mean glucose, insulin, GLP1, ghrelin and PYY concentrations at baseline/before meal (0 min), after meal (30 min) and post-meal (30–120 min). Values are means (n=12), with their standard errors. Mean values with unlike letters were significantly different (P<0.05; one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey–Kramer post hoc test).
