A blood glucose level of 107 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 glucose level of 107 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. It indicates higher-than-normal blood sugar levels but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.

  • Non-Fasting Blood Sugar (after eating):

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

    If 107 mg/dL is a non-fasting reading, it is within the normal range.

Next Steps:

  • If this is a fasting reading, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation, including an A1C test or oral glucose tolerance test.
  • Lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management can help lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of progressing to diabetes.
