Glucose in blood after a 75-g oral glucose load in 381 healthy subjects, 10 to 80 years old, without a family history of disturbances in carbohydrate metabolism, was significantly correlated with age, especially at 60 and 120 min after the load. Age differences were greater in females. There was no relation between blood insulin and age.
