Fig. 6. Data were used from four separate studies performed over 2 to 3 months. The third set of bars depict data from present study. First white bar depicts SBP of rats receiving all carbohydrate calories from starch (52%). Second dark gray bar depicts diets containing either sucrose (52%) or sucrose (18%)—starch (34%). Third light gray bar depicts same second diet plus chromium polynicotinate at the concentration indicated below figure. Percent under bars signifies percent of calories derived from carbohydrate in second and third diets, either 18% from sucrose with rest made up by starch or sucrose 52%. PPM under bars indicates concentration of chromium polynicotinate added to sucrose diets signified by last gray bar. Circle above bar indicates statistical significance vs. first bar (starch) in each set.
