is 114 glucose high

A blood glucose level of 114 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 114 mg/dL falls into the prediabetes range. It indicates higher-than-normal blood sugar levels but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.

• Postprandial (after eating):

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

  If 114 mg/dL is measured after eating, it is considered normal.

Next Steps:

• If this is a fasting reading, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
• 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.
