Effect of EGB on plasma lipid levels.

Groups	Control	HF	HF + EGB
T-Cho (mg/dL)	67.86±7.6	102.94±19.7^∗∗	67.79±5.8^##
TG (mg/dL)	83.83±16.4	272.67±107.0^∗∗	177.33±59.6^#
HDL-c (mg/dL)	13.75±1.3	16.02±2.9	20.2±2.2^#

Values were expressed as mean ± SD (𝑛=10). **𝑃<0.01 versus Cont.; ^#𝑃<0.05, ^##𝑃<0.01 versus HF. HF: high fructose; HF + EGB: high-fructose diet with EGB; T-Cho: total cholesterol; TG: triglyceride; HDL-c: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-c: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
