Figure 3. Forearm blood flow responses to acetylcholine (ACh) in the absence (dark grey bars) vs. presence (light grey bars) of the endothelial NO synthase inhibitor, NG-monomethyl-l-arginine (L-NMMA) at baseline (base) and following 12 weeks of maltose and trehalose supplementation in the subset of subjects who maintai-ned body mass within 2.3 kg. AUC, area under the dose response curve. Values are mean ± SE; *P<0.05 vs. baseline FBFACh in the absence of L-NMMA.
