The normal fasting blood sugar (FBS) range is typically between 70 mg/dL and 100 mg/dL. Here’s a breakdown of blood sugar ranges:
Blood Sugar Level Category
70–100 mg/dL Normal
100–125 mg/dL Prediabetes
126 mg/dL or higher Diabetes
Fasting blood sugar is measured after not eating for at least 8 hours. If your FBS is consistently above 100 mg/dL, it may indicate prediabetes or diabetes, and you should consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
