 Met Intake (mg Met/g BW) 1.14 ± 0.023a 0.38 ± 0.003b 0.28 ± 0.005c

Experiment 4
CON 0.17% Met 0.12% Met

Average Met intake per mouse for Experiments 1, 2, and 4, expressed as absolute Met intake and corrected for body weight. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. Groups not sharing a common letter within experiment are significantly different at p < 0.05.
