  1. Results are expressed in Means ± SD (n = 6); At p < 0.05, mean values with different letters of the alphabets (a, b, c, d …) as superscripts in a column are statically different while mean values with similar alphabets are not statistically different
  2. CHOL total cholesterol, HDL high density lipoprotein, TAGs triacylglycerols, LDL low density lipoprotein
