  1. gangadharan nair - Postprandial glucose test
    2 hours: less than 140 mg/dL. Between 140 - 200 mg/dL is considered impaired glucose tolerance (sometimes called "prediabetes"). This group is at increased risk for developing diabetes. Greater than 200 mg/dL is a sign of diabetes mellitus.
    Adopt diabetic diet.

  2. buffalo - Post-Meal Blood Sugar (Postprandial)
    Independent of what they eat, the blood sugar of a truly normal person is:

    Under 120 mg/dl (6.6 mmol/L) one or two hours after a meal.

    Most normal people are under 100 mg/dl (5.5 mmol/L) two hours after eating.

    Today start a low glycemic index diet and a daily exercise program. Also a glucometer would be a waste of money. We want to catch this disease in it's earliest stages , Don't we ???

  3. micksmixxx - No, my friend, it's NOT OK. You need to see your doctor as a non-diabetic's blood sugar (glucose) level wouldn't normally rise above 140 mg/dL. I say normally as there are occasions when it could, such as if you were to be suffering an underlying infection, you were going through a period of extreme stress, or you were taking certain medications which are known to cause a rise in blood glucose levels. (These medications often include steroids, such as the types prescribed for the treatment of asthma, or for treating certain specific types of infection.)
