* Due to the amount of fructose, both corn starch and maltodextrin had to be omitted from the diet to allow for inclusion of the fructose and supplementation with other dietary components.
** The maker of the diets was not able to provide details regarding the feed provided to the pigs that were the source of the lard, but they were most likely grain fed.
*** The food coloring is included to differentiate the experimental diets from the low fat diets during feeding.
