  1. ∆Fatty acids with levels greater than 1 % of total fatty acids. Different alphabets (a, b) represent a statistical difference at P <0.05 between carbohydrate diets (no added lipids) whereas different symbols (*,†,§) represent a statistical difference between control and emulsion groups within each carbohydrate dietary group. Groups with the same alphabet letters or symbols are not statistically different from each other
