†
Distribution of the energy with respect of the total energy intake; the difference to 100% corresponds to inter-meal snacks consumption; EE (Early eating condition), LE (Late eating condition). Habitual P values indicate comparison between EE and LE as tested by paired Student’s t-test for each genotype group.
