  1. Values are presented as mean ± standard deviation, n = 33.
  2. Abbreviation: LPI lupin protein isolate, MPI milk protein isolate, BP blood pressure.
  3. a P-value is for differences between treatments at wk 8 determined by repeated measures ANOVA.
  4. bData were not normally distributed and/or had heterogeneous variances, and thus were statistically analyzed using a linear mixed model.
  5. *, **, *** Significant differences comparing wk 8 with baseline determined by repeated measures ANOVA (* P ≤ 0.050, ** P ≤ 0.010, *** P ≤ 0.001).
