1 Data expressed as mean ± standard deviation (n = 3); different letters within the same row indicate statistically significant difference at P < 0.05 in the Duncan test. 2 Recommended daily allowance [mg/person/day] based on Jarosz et al. [25]. 3 Adequate intake [mg/person/day] based on Jarosz et al. [25]. 4 Percent coverage of daily demand for selected minerals calculated based on RDA and its content in the tested bread sample.
