The normal blood sugar range for adults varies depending on when the blood sugar is measured:

  • Fasting Blood Sugar (before meals): 70–99 mg/dL (3.9–5.5 mmol/L)
  • Postprandial Blood Sugar (1-2 hours after eating): Less than 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L)
  • A1C Test (average over 2-3 months): Below 5.7%

These ranges are general guidelines. Individual targets may vary based on health conditions, age, and other factors. Always consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
