A blood sugar level of 104 mg/dL is generally considered within the normal range for fasting blood glucose. Here’s a breakdown of blood sugar levels:

Blood Sugar Level (mg/dL) Category

Less than 100 Normal
100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes

  • Normal Range: Fasting blood sugar levels below 100 mg/dL are considered normal.
  • Prediabetes: Levels between 100–125 mg/dL may indicate prediabetes.
  • Diabetes: Levels of 126 mg/dL or higher on two separate tests typically indicate diabetes.

If your fasting blood sugar is consistently around 104 mg/dL, it’s a good idea to monitor it and discuss with your healthcare provider, especially if you have risk factors for diabetes.
