Abstract
In a group of healthy young male volunteers a worsened tolerance to oral glucose in the afternoon after a four-hour fast was reversed by a 12-hour fast. The latter also produced consistent mild hypoglycaemia from two and a half to four hours after the glucose loading irrespective of the time of day.
