Fasting blood sugar readings reveal important information about a person's body's blood sugar management. Blood sugar levels tend to rise for approximately an hour after eating and then fall. High fasting blood sugar levels indicate insulin resistance or diabetes, whereas unusually low fasting blood sugar levels, may indicate the use of diabetic medicines. Diabetes is a condition in which the body's capacity to generate or respond to the hormone insulin is compromised. The pancreas of people with type 1 diabetes does not produce insulin.

The Blood Glucose Fasting test in Gurgaon examines your blood sugar after an overnight fast. A fasting blood sugar level of 99 mg/dL or less is considered normal, whereas 100 to 125 mg/dL suggests prediabetes and 126 mg/dL indicates diabetes. Following a diabetes diagnosis, blood glucose testing may be required to assess how effectively your disease is being controlled. A high glucose level in a diabetic individual might indicate that their diabetes isn't being treated or managed properly.
