TABLE 4.

Fasting blood glucose and insulin values before and after intake of granola with cereal beta-glucan in different amounts.

	Low beta-glucan			Medium beta-glucan			High beta-glucan			p-value #
	Before	After	p-value^*	Before	After	p-value^*	Before	After	p-value^*
Fasting Glucose (mmol/L)	5.1 (4.8–5.7)	5.2 (4.8–5.5)	0.975	5.3 (5.0–5.7)	5.1 (5.0–5.4)	0.343	5.3 (5.0–5.6)	5.1 (4.8–5.4)	0.032	0.204

Data is given as median (25^th–75^th). p-values indicates differences between and within groups calculated by Friedmans Anova and Wilcoxon signed rank test. N = 14.

*P-values calculated with Wilcoxon signed rank test within groups. ^#P-values calculated with Friedmans Anova between groups. ^asignificant different from baseline as calculated with Wilcoxon signed rank test (p < 0.05).
