The normal blood sugar levels for individuals with diabetes are typically categorized as follows:
- Fasting Blood Sugar (before meals): 80–130 mg/dL
- Postprandial Blood Sugar (1-2 hours after meals): Less than 180 mg/dL
- A1C (average blood sugar over 2-3 months): Less than 7% for most adults with diabetes
These targets may vary depending on individual health conditions, age, and other factors. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized goals.
