  1. Values expressed as the percentage difference (95% CI) between the new composition’s estimated glucose value and the original geometric mean glucose value (Δ FPG% or Δ 2hPLG%) for each diabetes risk group
  2. aCompositions tested varied by 60 min from geometric means, for example, “Sit→ Stand” denotes 60 minutes subtracted from sitting time and added to standing time geometric means
