Blood Sugar Fasting and Post Prandial
Fasting blood sugar levels give vital clues about how a person’s body is managing blood sugar. Blood sugar tends to peak about an hour after eating and declines after that.
High fasting blood sugar levels point to diabetes, while abnormally low fasting blood sugar could be due to diabetes medications.
Postprandial means after a meal. This test is done to see how your body responds to sugar and starch after you eat a meal. As you digest the food in your stomach, blood glucose, or blood sugar, levels rise sharply. Usually this test is done 2 hours after you have taken your meal.
