Fasting Blood Sugar What it Tells You about Your Health

Jharna Rani M

Fasting blood sugar (FBS) is a fundamental metric in assessing an individual’s health status, particularly in the context of metabolic health. This abstract provides an overview of the significance of fasting blood sugar levels and their implications for overall health. FBS is a measurement of the glucose concentration in the bloodstream after an overnight fast and serves as a critical indicator for various health conditions, primarily diabetes and prediabetes. Elevated FBS levels are associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other chronic health issues. low FBS levels can signify underlying health concerns, such as hypoglycemia.
