In Study 2, the treatments as well as intervals were highly significant (P < 0.01) with respect to insulin levels while in Study 1, the treatments were non-significant (P > 0.05), but intervals showed significant effect (P < 0.05).
3.5.2.4 Total cholesterol Treatments and intervals showed significant impact on total cholesterol exhibiting a decreasing trend in both studies.
From the interactive means of treatment and intervals as shown in Table 7 , it can be observed that in study 1, the normal control subjects showed decrease in insulin level from 15.91 ± 0.99 IU/L to 15.58 ± 0.97 IU/L, whereas an increasing trend was observed over 28 days with the designer biscuit provision from 14.18 ± 0.88 IU/L to 16.14 ± 1.00 IU/L.
