How to read a blood sugar level chart
A blood sugar level chart compares a reading with published ranges for fasting plasma glucose, a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test, random glucose or A1C. This tool is for non-pregnant adults and reports the range a number falls in.
Glucose readings can be entered in mg/dL or mmol/L. The A1C option uses a percentage and is not converted with the glucose formula.
mmol/L = mg/dL ÷ 18.0182; mg/dL = mmol/L × 18.0182 This tool names a published range only; it does not diagnose diabetes, prediabetes or health. Repeat testing and a clinician are needed. Stress, illness, medication and meter error can move a single reading.
Blood sugar level chart FAQ
What does this blood sugar level chart show?
It shows the published range for the reading and test context you enter, plus the same glucose value in the other unit when applicable.
What does fasting mean here?
Fasting plasma glucose means no food for 8 hours.
Why is random glucose different?
The published diabetes-range threshold for random glucose is 200 mg/dL or above together with classic symptoms. This tool names the range and cannot assess symptoms or diagnose.
Does this tool diagnose diabetes or prediabetes?
No. A single reading can be moved by stress, illness, medication or meter error. Repeat testing and a clinician are needed.
Are my readings saved?
No. The calculation runs in your browser and this tool does not save the values you enter.
