Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before - after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 3.4 and a standard deviation of 19.8. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment.
