Fasting insulin and glucose levels in old rats after 6 weeks of diet.
| Diets | Casein | SMP | F-Pasta | L-Pasta | P-Pasta |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Insulin (ng/mL) | 0.55 ± 0.06 | 0.85 ± 0.19 | 0.74 ± 0.12 | 0.50 ± 0.04 | 0.51 ± 0.06 |
| Glucose (g/L) | 1.29 ± 0.06 | 1.37 ± 0.05 | 1.24 ± 0.06 | 1.26 ± 0.08 | 1.26 ± 0.06 |
Results are given as means ± SEM. Means with different letters within a line are significantly different (p < 0.05). F-pasta = faba bean-enriched pasta; L-pasta = lentil-enriched pasta; P-pasta = split pea-enriched pasta; SMP = soluble milk proteins.
