<FONT color="#333366"><FONT>                <FONT> <SPAN>Obesity</SPAN> is accompanied by an elevated fasting level of plasma insulin and an exaggerated insulin response to an oral glucose load. Overall fatness and the distribution of body fat influence the metabolism of glucose through independent but additive mechanisms. Increasing upper body  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN> is accompanied by a progressive increase in the response of glucose and insulin to an oral glucose challenge, and there is a positive correlation between increasing upper body  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN> and resistance to the effects of insulin. Posthepatic insulin delivery is increased in upper body  <SPAN>obesity</SPAN>, leading to more marked peripheral insulin concentrations which, in turn, lead to peripheral resistance to insulin.</FONT>
