Figure 3

24 Hour Plasma Glucagon Response (Top – control diet) (Bottom – LoBAG 30 diet). The open triangles, broken line represents the mean glucagon response at the beginning of the study, while ingesting a control diet of 55% carbohydrate, 15% protein, 30% fat. The closed triangles, solid line represents the glucagon response after 5 weeks of ingesting a control diet. The open circles, broken line represents the glucagon response at the beginning of the test arm of the study while ingesting a control diet of 55% carbohydrate, 15% protein, 30% fat. The closed circles, solid line represents the glucagon response after 5 weeks of ingesting a LoBAG30 diet consisting of 30% carbohydrate, 30% protein, 40% fat. The inserts indicate the mean net 24-hour integrated glucagon area response pre- and post 5 weeks after ingesting a control (top) or LoBAG30 diet (bottom), using the fasting value as a baseline. * indicates statistical significance (P = 0.03).
