  1. Data are presented as mean ± SE
  2. BUN blood urea nitrogen, FFA free fatty acids, HOMA-IR homeostasis model assessment, Hb hemoglobin, HCT hematocrit, PLT platelet, RBC red blood cells, WBC white blood cells
  3. *Tested using logarithmic transformation
  4. ap-values were calculated using the paired t-test when comparing the baseline values (0 weeks)
  5. bp-values were calculated using the independent t-test when comparing the “change” values
