Normal blood glucose levels vary depending on whether you are fasting or have recently eaten. Here are the general guidelines:
- Fasting Blood Sugar (before eating): 70–99 mg/dL (3.9–5.5 mmol/L)
- Postprandial (2 hours after eating): Less than 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L)
These levels are considered normal for most adults. However, individual targets may vary based on factors like age, medical history, and specific health conditions. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
