Fasting and 2-h plasma glucose (FPG, 2-h PG) after a 75-g glucose load in participants with a postprandial blood glucose concentration higher than the mean. Left: trehalose intake group; right: sucrose intake group. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 13). Comparisons of FPG and 2-h PG between the groups were made using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. P values: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. Comparisons between the trehalose and sucrose intake groups were made using the Mann-Whitney U-test. P value: ^§p < 0.05
