Olive Oil Before Oral Glucose Delays Gastric Emptying and Lowers Glycemia Through Partially Redundant Glucagon and GLP-1 Signaling in Mice

Consumption of fat before carbohydrate (preload) attenuates postprandial glucose excursions, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated whether an olive oil preload (OG) reduces glycemia by engaging endocrine and neural regulation of gastric emptying. Wild...
