Abstract: | Gastric emptying is a determinant of the postprandial glycemic and cardiovascular responses to oral carbohydrate. We evaluated the effects of a solid meal on gastric emptying and the glycemic and cardiovascular responses to oral glucose in healthy older subjects. Ten subjects aged 72.1 +/- 1.9 yr were studied. Each subject had measurements of gastric emptying, blood glucose, serum insulin, blood pressure, and heart rate after ingestion of a 50-g glucose drink (300 ml) with (mixed meal) or without (liquid only) a solid meal (300 g ground beef). Gastric emptying of liquid was initially slightly more rapid (P < 0.05) after the mixed meal compared with liquid only at 5 min (92.0 +/- 1.5 vs. 96.0 +/- 1.3%) and much slower (P < 0.05) after 120 min. The time to peak blood glucose was less (39.0 +/- 4.0 vs. 67.5 +/- 10.3 min; P < 0.01) and blood glucose subsequently lower (P < 0.01) after the mixed meal. The increase in serum insulin was greater (P < 0.001) after the mixed meal. Blood pressure fell (P < 0.05) in the first 30 min, with no difference between the two meals. Increase in heart rate after both meals (P < 0.005), was greater (P < 0.05) after the mixed meal. The presence of a noncarbohydrate solid meal had discrepant effects on early and subsequent emptying of a nutrient liquid, which affects postprandial glycemia and increased heart rate. |
