  1. Treatment groups comprising groups A—saline, B—1 mg/kg, C—3.16 mg/kg and D—10 mg/kg. A letter has been assigned to each treatment. Different letters in the table columns represent significant differences among the treatment groups (A, B, C and D) at P < 0.05. Across each row, weight groups (underweight, normal weight, and overweight) have been marked by the same letter if there were not significantly different (P > 0.05).
