what is the normal range for fasting blood glucose levels

The normal range for fasting blood glucose levels is typically between 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) and 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L). Here’s a breakdown of the ranges:

Blood Glucose Level (mg/dL) Interpretation

Below 70 Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar) 70–100 Normal

Fasting blood glucose is measured after not eating for at least 8 hours. If your levels are consistently outside the normal range, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
