@successwellness0: WHY IS YOUR BLOOD SUGAR TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW? WHAT IS NORMAL BLOOD SUGAR? Blood sugar levels that are too high or too low can affect your health. Understanding your numbers is an important step toward preventing diabetes complications. High blood sugar (Hyperglycemia) can be caused by diabetes, missed medication, illness, stress, dehydration, or eating more carbohydrates than your body can manage. Low blood sugar (Hypoglycemia) can result from taking too much insulin or certain diabetes medicines, skipping meals, exercising more than usual, or drinking alcohol without enough food.What is normal blood sugar? Fasting: 70–99 mg/dL (3.9–5.5 mmol/L) is generally normal for someone without diabetes. Two hours after eating: Below 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) is generally normal for someone without diabetes. Low blood sugar: Below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) needs attention, especially for people taking diabetes medication. High blood sugar: Repeated readings above the normal range may require medical assessment. People with diabetes may have different individualized targets. Always follow your healthcare professional's advice. IMPORTANT: If blood sugar is below 70 mg/dL and you are awake and able to swallow, take 15 grams of fast-acting carbohydrates and recheck after 15 minutes. If the person is unconscious or having seizures, do not give food or drink by mouth—seek emergency medical help. TAKE ACTION TODAY: Check your blood sugar, understand your readings, take prescribed medication as directed, and consult a healthcare professional if your levels remain high or low.
