Concomitant Intake of Quercetin with a Grain-Based Diet Acutely Lowers Postprandial Plasma Glucose and Lipid Concentrations in Pigs
Figure 1
Effect of quercetin on postprandial concentrations of glucose, triacylglycerol, and nonesterified fatty acids. Area under the postprandial plasma concentration-time curves of glucose (a), triacylglycerol (b), and nonesterified fatty acids (c) after overnight (12 h) fasting followed by the ingestion of 500 g of a grain-based meal without (clear symbols) or with (filled symbols) the addition of quercetin (10 mg/kg body weight). Data are means (SD); paired, two-tailed t-test (), significant differences: indicates and indicates . AUC: area under the plasma concentration-time curve; NEFA: nonesterified fatty acids; TG: triacylglycerol.
