  1. ALT alanine aminotransferase, AST aspartate aminotransferase, ALP alkaline phosphatase, GGT gamma glutamyl transferase, Vit D vitamin D
  2. Repeated measures analysis of covariance was conducted controlling for fasting blood glucose, serum cholesterol, triglycerides, waist circumference, waist: hip ratio
  3. The degree of freedom for group effects, time effects and time*group effects was 3, 1, and 3, respectively, for all variables
  4. *Significant effect
