I was just on the US FDA website doing a little research, and came across this little gem of a recommendation concerning blood sugar. It’s in their medical device section unter Glucose Meters.
"What should your glucose levels be? Your fasting blood glucose level (after not eating for 8-10 hours) should be lower than 126 mg/dL. Your blood glucose level *immediately after eating (huh? what does this mean :dontknow:?) should be lower than 200 mg/dL.
Tsk, tsk. I guess it’s true that the benchmarks we on DF talk about are under these recommendations, but wow! Even the ADA’s guidelines are lower than this. No wonder people are so confused.
