  1. BMI = body mass index; WC = waist circumference; BP = blood pressure (sys = systolic; dia = diastolic); TG = triglycerides; HDL-C = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
  2. ‘Extract’ refers to direct protein precipitation/extraction on raw biological materials; ‘fraction’ refers a separation of biological materials into polar and lipid fractions. MeOH: methanol.
