Abstract
There is little doubt that the interrelation between food intake, obesity, abnormal carbohydrate metabolism, and abnormal pancreatic hormonal secretion is complex. The subject has been reviewed many times, recently by Woods and Porte (1). It is clear that obesity contributes to abnormal carbohydrate metabolism and abnormal insulin secretion in animals (2) and man (3) and conversely, weight reduction tends to correct these abnormalities (4).
