Figure 2

a (top) The relative profiles for postprandial glucose are depicted for 8 h following a challenge breakfast with either POL, PHSO, or IE fat in the test meal (means ± SE, n = 19). After 6 h and 8 h the IE glucose was significantly greater than PHSO and POL. For the entire period the IAUC for IE was 40–45% greater than the other two fats (Figure 2b, below) Postprandial meals were consumed at the beginning of wk3 during each diet period (means ± SE, n = 19).
