Orange juice (500 mL/d)
The patients were instructed to drink orange juice in two daily portions during eight consecutive weeks. Patients from both groups were asked to maintain their usual lifestyle, diet, and physical activity, and they were checked weekly by the researcher's team. Assessments of anthropometric data, dietary intake, as well as blood sample collection for biochemical analysis were performed in all participants on the first and last day of the experiment.
