Summary
Circulating levels of glucose and particularly those of insulin are significantly lower in African mothers (Kivu, Zaire) nursing their infants than in non pregnant and non lactating women of the same area. Furthermore, the glycemia and the insulinemia increase relatively less after a glucose load in the breastfeeding mothers. The lack of glucose available to the mammary gland may explain the low volumes of milk produced by the lactating mothers in this region of Africa.
