    Masayuki Saito
    Department of Nutrition, School of Nursing and Nutrition, Tenshi College, Sapporo, Japan
    Diabetes 58:1526-31. 2009

    Takeshi Yoneshiro
    Department of Nutrition, School of Nursing and Nutrition, Tenshi College, Sapporo, Japan
    Obesity (Silver Spring) 19:13-6. 2011
