compared with the lean controls the obese subjects showed a greater area under the curve of blood glucose after the glucose load ( p less than 0.025 ) and higher insulin and glucagon levels both before and after the meal ( p less than 0.05 ) , thus indicating the well-known insulin insensitivity of obese ( but not diabetic ) subjects with respect to glucose metabolism .
