High blood sugar is becoming the leading cause of degenerative diseases and fatality. The number of people with diabetes is increasing at an alarming rate. Diabetes is diagnosed based on fasting blood sugar measurement, which is taken 8 or more hours after your last meal.
Fasting sugar levels:
Higher than 125 mg/dL = diabetes
100-125 mg/dL = pre-diabetic
Lower than 100 mg/dL = normal
Fasting glucose readings do not detect after meal glucose surges that occur throughout the day depending on the number of meals consumed. Post meal glucose surges can reach diabetic levels and are just as or even more damaging than high fasting blood sugar.
