I would be very careful. 200 is that magic number today that indicates you may no longer be just insulin resistant but diabetic. This person should eliminate all trans fats, increase omega 3's and switch to low glycemic carbohydrates to prevent nerve and other cellular damage.

∙ 11y agoYes, a normal fasting bloodsugar ranges from 4-7 mmol / L. (72-126 mg/dL in the US)
After a meal it can be as high as 10 mmol / L or 180 mg/dL.
In US units (mg/dL), 200 is equivalent to (200/18= 11.1 mmol/L) and is therefore higher than the usual after-meal level. It's likely to be a diabetic number.
It's also above the usual renal threshold for blood sugar, and so will likely mean some sugar coming out in your urine, and some long-term diabetic complications.
