A blood sugar level of 101 mg/dL after eating is generally considered normal for most people. Here’s a breakdown of typical blood sugar ranges after meals:

  • Normal: Less than 140 mg/dL (2 hours after eating)
  • Prediabetes: 140–199 mg/dL (2 hours after eating)
  • Diabetes: 200 mg/dL or higher (2 hours after eating)

However, individual targets may vary based on factors like age, health conditions, and medications. If you’re concerned about your blood sugar levels, consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
