What should your blood sugar be before and after meals if you have diabetes? Learn typical blood glucose targets for many adults who aren’t pregnant—and why your personal target range may be different. This short Rehealthify video explains these typical diabetes blood sugar targets: • Before a meal: 80–130 mg/dL. • Two hours after the start of a meal: less than 180 mg/dL. The two-hour timing begins when you start eating, not when you finish. Your goals may differ depending on your age, other health conditions, your risk of low blood sugar, and other factors. Learn why it’s important to work with your health care team to identify the best target range for you. For more clear, evidence-based health information without the hype, subscribe to Rehealthify.
