what should my blood sugar be after fasting

Normal fasting blood sugar levels are typically between 70 to 99 mg/dL (milligrams per deciliter). Here’s a breakdown of what your fasting blood sugar levels might indicate:

• Normal: 70–99 mg/dL
• Prediabetes: 100–125 mg/dL
• Diabetes: 126 mg/dL or higher on two separate tests

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