A normal fasting blood sugar level in the morning (before eating) typically falls within the following ranges:

  • Normal: 70 to 99 mg/dL (3.9 to 5.5 mmol/L)
  • Prediabetes: 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L)
  • Diabetes: 126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests

It's important to note that these values can vary slightly depending on individual health conditions and guidelines from different medical organizations. If your fasting blood sugar levels are consistently outside the normal range, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
