is 117 blood sugar high

A blood sugar level of 117 mg/dL can be interpreted as follows:

• Fasting Blood Sugar: If this reading is taken after fasting (e.g., in the morning before eating), it is slightly above the normal range (70–99 mg/dL) and may indicate prediabetes.
• Post-Meal Blood Sugar: If taken 1–2 hours after eating, this level is generally considered within the normal range (less than 140 mg/dL).

What to Do:

• If fasting blood sugar consistently falls in this range, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation, such as an A1C test.
• Maintain a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and monitor your blood sugar levels.

For personalized advice, always consult your doctor.
