A blood sugar level of 96 mg/dL is generally considered within the normal range for fasting blood glucose. Here’s a quick reference for blood sugar levels:

Blood Sugar Level (mg/dL) Category

Below 100 Normal
100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes

  • Fasting Blood Sugar: A level of 96 mg/dL is healthy and indicates good glucose control.
  • Post-Meal Blood Sugar: If this is a post-meal reading, it’s also within a healthy range (typically below 140 mg/dL after 2 hours).

However, individual targets may vary based on factors like age, medical history, and diabetes status. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
