Figure Lengend Snippet: Overview of glucose wavelets during night and in postprandial period in growing pigs depending of the diet composition. Two meal test procedures (meal distribution at 0900 h) were conducted either with a high starch meal (A – HS, n = 6 pigs) or a high-fat meal (B – HF, n = 7 pigs). During the preceding night, pigs have no access to food. Glucose values were read every 5 min from a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor, and computed for the night and the period starting 15 min before and lasting for 3 h following the distribution of the morning meal test.
