[6] [7] [9] Normal value ranges may vary slightly between laboratories. Glucose homeostasis, when ...
A postprandial glucose (PPG) test is a blood glucose test that determines the amount of glucose in the plasma after a meal. [1] The diagnosis is typically restricted to postprandial hyperglycemia due to lack of strong evidence of co-relation with a diagnosis of diabetes .

A level below 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) 10–16 hours without eating is normal. 5.6–6 mmol/L (100–109 mg/dL) may indicate prediabetes and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) should be offered to high-risk individuals (old people, those with high blood pressure etc.). 6.1–6.9 mmol/L (110–125 mg/dL) means OGTT should be offered even if other ...
