^aThe AUC is reported as mm x minutes and was constructed by plotting the subjective values between 0 to 100 mm over time (minute) for each of the five VAS questions.
^bAdjusted mean from the mixed model analysis.
^cCommon standard error (SE) for all of the adjusted means.
^dPercent difference compared to Control lunch test meal.
^eP-value compared to Control lunch test meal.
^fP-value for diet effect from the mixed model analysis.
