Metabolic parameters during euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. After 8 weeks of treatment with four different diets—one containing 10% cooked soybeans (CSB), one containing meju made in the traditional (TMS), one containing meju made in the standardized (MMS) manner, and one containing casein (control)—euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp was performed in conscious, free moving and overnight fasted diabetic rats to determine whole body insulin resistance. Whole body glucose infusion rates (GIR) and glucose uptake and hepatic glucose output at basal and clamped states were investigated. The sample size in each group was the same as in Table4. Means of the bars without a common letter significantly differ at P < 0.05 by Tukey test. †Significantly different from Px control at P < 0.05.
