Postprandial fat oxidation. Absolute (a) and adjusted (b) fat oxidation in response to meals containing 15%E or 30%E protein with a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) or non-nutritive-sweetened beverage (NNSB) are presented as box and whickers plots with the line representing the median, the box representing the 25th to 75th percentiles and the whiskers representing the minimum to maximum values. There were significant main effects of sex and beverage type on absolute fat oxidation. Absolute fat oxidation was greater in the males compared to the females. There was no main effect of sex after adjustment for lean body mass (LBM). Fat oxidation was significantly reduced after consuming a SSB. There was no significant main effect of protein level nor were there any sex, protein level or beverage type interactions. Items with similar letters are not significant different
