MH: metabolically healthy, MUH: metabolically unhealthy, Cho: carbohydrate, Chol: cholesterol, and SD: standard deviation. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD) or percent. ∗P value was obtained from independent T-test. ∗∗P value was obtained from ANCOVA test, variable adjust for total energy, and the P value was set to <0.05. aEnergy percent (%).
