Baseline characteristics of the study participants.

Variables	Participants (N = 11)
Age, y	65 ± 6
Weight, kg	71 ± 12
Females (%)	100
Body Mass Index, kg/m2	27.3 ± 3.4
Total cholesterol, mmol/L	6.18 ± 0.62
VLDL-C, mmol/L	0.54 ± 0.20
LDL-C, mmol/L	3.96 ± 0.63
HDL-C, mmol/L	1.67 ± 0.38
Triacylglycerol, mmol/L	1.19 ± 0.44

All values were presented as mean ± SD. To convert values for total cholesterol, VLDL-C, LDL-C, HDL-C and triacylglycerol, multiply 38.67 and 88.54, respectively. HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; VLDL-C, very low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol.
