1Data are least square means of 8 observations.

2Values for daily intake or output are the average of a 4-d collection period.

a,bMeans within a row lacking a common superscript letter are different (P < 0.05).

x,yMeans within a row lacking a common superscript letter tend to be different (P < 0.10).
