Serum stable isotope ratios at baseline and postfeeding of the postmenopausal women in the NPAAS-FS included in this study1
| Baseline | Postfeeding | Difference | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CIR, ‰ | −19.9 ± 0.6 (−21.4, −17.6) | −20.0 ± 0.5 (−21.7, −18.0) | −0.03 ± 0.34 (−1.1, 1.2) |
| NIR, ‰ | 8.8 ± 0.4 (8.0, 9.9) | 8.9 ± 0.5 (7.8, 10.0) | 0.02 ± 0.26 (−0.7, 0.7) |
| SIR, ‰ | 1.6 ± 0.9 (−0.2, 4.2) | 1.6 ± 0.9 (−0.7, 4.2) | 0.03 ± 0.74 (−2.5, 1.9) |
1Values are means ± SDs (ranges), n = 147. CIR, carbon isotope ratio; NIR, nitrogen isotope ratio; NPAAS-FS, Nutrition and Physical Activity Assessment Study Feeding Study; SIR, sulfur isotope ratio.
