65-99 (mg/dl) is considered normal fasting blood sugar range. 100-125 is considered pre-diabetic. Two fasting blood sugar tests of 126 or above is confirmed diabetic. ---------------------------------------------------- The normal amount in a non-diabetic person should be between 90 and 120. It shouldn't go below or above these numbers. -------------------------------------------------------- I have gestational diabetes... I have been told that I need to keep my fasting blood sugar below 90, but definitely above 70. If my sugar reaches 65 or lower, they told me that I need to drink a glass of juice right away. My after-meal sugars should be under 140. Remember, after-meal blood sugars need to be taken 1 hour after the first bite of food, not after finishing the meal. ---------------------------------------
What is the normal blood glucose for a 77 year old man?
Blood sugar level at any one point in the day is not an indication of health by itself. To determine if your blood sugar is high, you need to know either 1) how high your blood sugar is all day on average (H1a or fructosamine test) 2) how slowly your blood sugar comes back down to normal after eating (glucose tolerance test). 3) your fasting blood sugar -- the lowest blood sugar of the day, when you wake and before you eat. However, any single reading of over 180 (in the U.S.) or over 10.0 (outside the US) is a sign of possible diabetes, regardless of your age, and should prompt further testing.
