Normal fasting blood glucose levels are typically in the range of 70 to 99 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter). This measurement is taken after an overnight fast of at least 8 hours.
Here’s a quick reference table:
Blood Glucose Level (mg/dL) Interpretation
70–99 Normal
100–125 Prediabetes
126 or higher Diabetes
If your fasting blood glucose is consistently outside the normal range, it’s important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
