Plasma glucose excursions during OGTT: glucose concentrations during OGTT at baseline and after consuming aspartame- (n = 23) (A), HFCS- (n = 28) (B), or sucrose-sweetened beverages (n = 24) (C) for 2 weeks (intervention). Δ 3-hour Glucose AUC (intervention—baseline) during OGTT in subjects consuming either aspartame, HFCS-, or sucrose- sweetened beverages for 2 weeks (D). **P < 0.01, effect of SB group, 2-factor (SB group, sex) ANCOVA with adjustment for outcome at baseline. ⁺⁺P < 0.01, LS mean different from 0; a different from b, Tukey’s.
