What is the normal blood glucose level?
Blood glucose concentrations fluctuate throughout the day. Typically levels rise after a meal and fall during fasting. Fasting blood glucose levels are relatively constant in individuals and provide a useful baseline for diagnosis. Measurement of a fasting blood glucose level after fasting overnight is the most accurate test for diagnosing diabetes. A level of less than 6 mmol/l is considered to be normal and a level of 7 mmol/l or higher diagnoses diabetes.
