is 109 high for blood sugar

A blood sugar level of 109 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

• Non-Fasting Blood Sugar (random):

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

A fasting blood sugar level of 109 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. However, if this is a non-fasting reading, it may still be within the normal range. It’s important to consult your healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and to discuss any necessary lifestyle changes or treatments.
