Correlation between post-prandial plasma levels of insulin, IL-6 and antioxidant capacity measured by FRAP.

<p>(A) Estimated predictive model of insulin levels relative to IL-6 and antioxidant capacity, following the equation: Insulin (pg/mL) = 4.52 (IL-6 pg/mL) -1.03 (FRAP μM TE) + 1146.8. The observed potency is 0.988 and 0.766 for IL-6 and FRAP, respectively. Correlation between insulin levels and antioxidant capacity (B) and IL-6 (C) after soy beverage intake. Pearson correlation was observed for antioxidant capacity p = 0.0007 and IL-6 p = 0.0416. (d) “∩” behaviour observed between plasma antioxidant capacity measured by FRAP and insulin content after glucose load.
