Effect of Exercise on Glucose Uptake in Rats and Men

Jean Christophe 1 and Jean Mayer 1

1 From the Department of Nutrition, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts

A method for the determination of glucose utilization in vivo is described: a relatively small intravenous load of glucose is administered rapidly and the descending portion of the glucose tolerance curve (9–11 points) is plotted semilogarithmically. The slope of the straight line thus obtained is a reproducible measure of glucose utilization. Using this method it can be shown that exercise increases in a highly significant manner the rate of glucose utilization in fasted rats and men.
