Note: HFCS—High fructose corn syrup, %—energy intake from the macronutrient as a percentage of total energy intake. All Groups consumed sugar sweetened, low-fat milk in amounts that the added sugar contributed 9% (fructose and glucose groups) or 18% (sucrose and HFCS groups) of the calories required for the participant to maintain weight. ** Significant difference pre vs. post in the entire study population p < 0.001; † Change significantly different than group HFCS p < 0.01; ¥ Change from baseline significantly different than group Sucrose p < 0.01.
