While the normal blood glucose is 70-110, a single reading of 60mg/dL is not worrisome, provided there are no symptoms of hypoglycemia (tachycardia, sweating, confusion, coma, anxiety).
-enzyme immobilised(in biosensor ) -H+ ions released (from gluconic acid) -give positive charge -current flows -size of current proportional to concentration of H+/glucose -low reading (when blood tested) indicates,hypoglycaemia/ low blood glucose concentration. -Or reverse arguments.
A fasting blood glucose of 137 is a concern. A random blood glucose of 137 is not a concern.
its a little high.
Give insulin 30 minutes after meal. If checking your pet with a blood glucose meter, that is best to see what their blood glucose reading is. If their blood glucose is on the low side 75-100 give 1 tablespoon corn syrup or maple syrup before meal.
When the demand for energy is low, animals convert glucose to glycogen to fat. Glucose is sometimes referred to as grape sugar or D-glucose.
If your blood glucose level (BGL) was low, it means you have hypoglycaemia and you have to take some sugar or glucose by mouth.
A serum glucose level (Sgpt) of 60 µL is typically considered low, as normal fasting glucose levels generally range from 70 to 100 mg/dL. If this value refers to a different context or unit, please clarify. Low glucose levels can lead to hypoglycemia, which may require medical attention. Always consult a healthcare professional for accurate interpretation and advice.
Low Blood Glucose is the same thing as Low blood sugar, since Glucose is a form of sugar. Glucose is different from other sugars because it has only half the amount of sweetness, compared to other sugars such as Dextrose or Maltose. Low blood sugar can result in Hypoglycemia, which is common in many people with diabetes.
If insulin is low and glucose is high, you will feel hungry
The other way around. When blood glucose levels are low, the liver converts stored sugar, glycogen, into blood sugar, glucose. You can remember it this way: glyco-GEN GEN-nerates glucose.
Yes..Sometimes you have to check the meter and strips which may have an effect on the reading...I had a reading that was unusual for me...I checked it with another strip and the reading was more the range I was expecting
The body takes up more glucose
