blood sugar levels metric system
A person with early type 2 diabetes will need less frequent blood glucose measurements to guide food choices and adjust activity levels. Several testing units are available and all are relatively easy to use. There are two blood sugar scales in use-the metric system mmol/l and the older mg/dl scale.The most important number is 7mmol/l = 120mg/dl-the upper limits of normal range for fasting blood sugar and 2 hours after-eating blood sugar.wo hours after eating: blood sugar rises and then falls to a baseline level. By sampling blood sugar levels two hours after eating, you find out if glucose is being removed from your blood in a reasonable time. The sugar level peaks in 30-60 minutes and the falls back to a baseline level.
