What are considered normal blood sugar levels?
Top Replies
Hi DiabetesResearcher! Great question. For someone without diabetes, normal blood sugar levels are usually between 70 and 130 mg/dL before meals and less than 180 mg/dL after meals. It's important for everyone to maintain healthy blood sugar levels as fluctuations can affect energy levels and overall health.
Adding to that, it's worth noting that blood sugar control is key to preventing complications in people with diabetes. Regular monitoring, physical activity, and a balanced diet can help manage blood sugar levels effectively. Staying within the target range as much as possible can reduce the risk of long-term complications.
Absolutely! It's also important to remember that maintaining normal blood sugar levels is just one aspect of diabetes management. Living a healthy lifestyle, which includes regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management, plays a significant role in managing diabetes and improving overall quality of life.
