what is a normal fasting blood glucose level

A normal fasting blood glucose level typically falls within the following range:

• Normal: 70 to 99 mg/dL (3.9 to 5.5 mmol/L)

Fasting blood glucose levels are measured after not eating or drinking (except water) for at least 8 hours. Levels outside this range may indicate prediabetes or diabetes:

• Prediabetes: 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L)
• Diabetes: 126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests

It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for accurate diagnosis and management.
