Normal blood glucose for anyone is 70-110mg/dL. Diabetics have increased blood glucose due to an absolute or relative lack of insulin.
In the old days, anything less than 150mg/dL was considered good for a diabetic. Newer research, however, has shown that tight blood glucose control has beneficial effects on long-term complications. Now, a fasting blood glucose from 70-130mg/dL is considered adequate (2008 ADA guidelines, page S13), peak post-prandial glucose no higher than 180mg/dL, and a Hemoglobin A1c < 7 are also part of the newest American Diabetes association guidelines.
