  1. Values are given in mmol/L. P1—Delta statistics unadjusted. P2—Delta changes adjusted for changes in weight. Values are reported as mean ± SE. On treatment analysis was performed for all variables. The level of significance was set to p-value < 0.05 after Bonferroni correction. Baseline samples collected at visit 1, post treatment samples were collected at visit 6 (5 weeks of treatment total)
