is 106 blood sugar normal

A blood sugar level of 106 mg/dL can be interpreted as follows:

• Fasting Blood Sugar (before eating):

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

  A fasting blood sugar of 106 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. It indicates slightly elevated blood sugar levels, which may increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

• Non-Fasting Blood Sugar (after eating):

  • Normal: Below 140 mg/dL
  • Prediabetes/Diabetes: 140–199 mg/dL or higher

  If 106 mg/dL is a non-fasting reading, it is considered normal.

Next Steps:

• Consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
• Consider lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight management to help lower blood sugar levels.
