% Difference, p-value, and 95% CI were estimated from a regression model with log-transformed outcome;

b

Measured directly, is the sum of starch and total free sugars (g available/100 g rice);

c

TAA expressed as α-tocopherol equivalents/g.;

d

FRSA expressed as % of free radical scavenged (catechin equivalents).
