Water (Control)F24F12LF12D

24 h volume (mL)11.5 ± 0.720.2 ± 2.4*11.5 ± 1.619.8 ± 1.5*
Light phase (%)30.4 ± 6.032.8 ± 3.944.0 ± 1.8*25.4 ± 5.6
Dark phase (%)69.6 ± 6.0#67.2 ± 3.9#56.0 ± 1.874.6 ± 5.6#

ANOVA showed a significant effect of diet for 24 h volume intake [F (3.21) = 8.9, ]. ANOVA showed main effect of light/dark [F (1.42) = 100.6, ] and interaction between light/dark and diet [F (3.42) = 5.6, ]. vs. Control. vs. light.
