Abstract
KEY POINTS: Exercise, insulin-infusion and low-glucose mixed-nutrient meal ingestion increases muscle microvascular blood flow which in part facilitates glucose delivery and disposal. In contrast, high-glucose ingestion impairs muscle microvascular blood flow which may contribute to impaired postprandial metabolism. We investigated the effects of prior cycling exercise on postprandial muscle microvascular blood flow responses to a high-glucose mixed-nutrient meal ingested 3 and 24 h post-exercise. Prior exercise enhanced muscle microvascular blood flow and mitigated microvascular impairments induced by a high-glucose mixed meal ingested 3 h post-exercise, and to a lesser extent 24 h post-exe..
