Relationship between plasma insulin, the size and number of adpocytes and habitual calory intake in a group of 186 obese women.
In a group of 186 obese women, no correlation was found between post-glucose load insulinemia, measured at 13:00 hrs, and the degree of overweight, nor between post-glucose insulinemia and mean adipocyte diameter. Significant correlations were found between post-glucose insulinemia and daily caloric intake, and between post-protein insulinemia and mean adipocyte diameter. Post-glucose and post-protein load insulinemia were interrelated.
