A fasting blood glucose level of 105 mg/dL is slightly above the normal range, which is typically 70-99 mg/dL. Here's what it means:

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

A reading of 105 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes category, indicating that your blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. This is a warning sign that you may be at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

What Should You Do?

  • Lifestyle Changes: Focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management.
  • Monitor Blood Sugar: Regularly check your blood sugar levels.
  • Consult a Doctor: Discuss your results with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and personalized advice.

Early intervention can help prevent or delay the onset of diabetes.
