Regulatory
functions of glycogen stores and blood glucose on human appetite,
particularly relating to exercise, are not fully understood. Ten men
(age 20-31 yr) performed glycogen-depleting exercise in an
evening, ate a low-carbohydrate dinner, and stayed overnight in the
laboratory. The next day, blood glucose was monitored continuously for
517 ± 23 (SE) min. Subjects had access to high-fat and
high-carbohydrate foods after baseline glucose and respiratory quotient
were determined. In the afternoon, 1 h of moderate exercise was
performed. Baseline respiratory quotient was 0.748 ± 0.008, plasma
free fatty acids were 677 ± 123 µmol/l, insulin was 4.8 ± 0.5 µU/ml, and leptin was 1.9 ± 0.3 ng/ml.
Postabsorptively, 8 of 10 meals were initiated during stability in
blood glucose. Postprandially, the association between meal initiation
and blood glucose declines became significant
(
2 = 7.82). During moderate
exercise, blood glucose initially decreased but recovered before
completion. When the glycogen buffer is depleted, meal initiation can
occur during blood glucose stability; the relationship between blood
glucose declines and meal initiation reestablishes with refeeding.
