is 104 blood sugar good

A blood sugar level of 104 mg/dL can be interpreted as follows:

• Fasting Blood Sugar (before eating):

  • Normal: 70–99 mg/dL
  • Prediabetes: 100–125 mg/dL
  • Diabetes: 126 mg/dL or higher

  A fasting blood sugar of 104 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. It indicates slightly elevated blood sugar levels, which may increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

• Post-Meal Blood Sugar (1–2 hours after eating):

  • Normal: Less than 140 mg/dL
  • Prediabetes/Diabetes: 140 mg/dL or higher

  If 104 mg/dL is a post-meal reading, it is considered normal.

What to Do:

• If this is a fasting reading, consult your doctor for further evaluation.
• Consider lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight management to help lower your blood sugar levels.
