aValues are means ± SEMs; BL, baseline; YS, yogurt smoothie with no BB-12®; PRE, yogurt smoothie with BB-12® added pre-fermentation; POST, yogurt smoothie with BB-12® post-fermentation; SCFAs, short chain fatty acids
-
bStatistical analyses were calculated using sex, treatment as between subject factor and randomization ID as the within-subject factor and age, BMI, fiber intake as covariates
- *P values are for the main effect of treatment
- ** Values are significantly difference from baseline (P < 0.01)
