Brief Summary: GLP-1 is an incretin hormone that simulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion in a glucose dependent way Below normal plasma glucose levels the effects of GLP-1 stop and the risk of hypoglycemia is small However no results exits on the effects pharmacologically relevant doses of GLP-1 during long-time fasting There seems to be a risk of hypoglycemia in healthy people after a fasting period when a glucose load is administered The risk of hypoglycemia when GLP-1 is administered will be evaluated during these two conditions
Detailed Description: GLP-1 is an incretin hormone that simulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon secretion dependent on a normal plasma glucoseIt also inhibits gastric emptying and has a trophic effect on the pancreatic beta-cells Below normal plasma glucose levels the effects of GLP-1 stop and the risk of hypoglycemia is smallThe counter regulatory response to hypoglycemia has been shown to be preserved during GLP-1 infusion However no results exits on the effects pharmacologically relevant doses of GLP-1 during long-time fasting There seems to be a risk of hypoglycemia in healthy people after a fasting period when a glucose load is administered The risk of hypoglycemia when GLP-1 is administered will be evaluated during these two48 hours of fasting followed by a glucose-loadconditions in healthy men

Also the effect on 24 hour blood pressure will be evaluated
