    Great Answer

    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    The average blood sugar level in the body is 70 mg/dL to 130 mg/dL before eating a meal, or lower than 180 mg/dL up to two hours after a meal.

    I added this answer after seeing the "professionally researched answer"

    ""Fasting" blood glucose levels are obtained 8 or more hours without any food or drink with calories. Fasting blood glucose levels under 100 mg/dl are considered normal, and fasting blood glucose levels 126 mg/dl or over are consistent with diabetes. Fasting blood glucose levels between 100 - 125 mg/dl are not normal, but are not defined as diabetes. They are termed "impaired fasting glucose".

    "Random" blood glucose levels are obtained any time of the day or night, regardless of how recently a person has taken food or drink with calories. Random blood glucose levels 200 mg/dl or above are consistent with diabetes. Glucose can also be tested in a standardized way with an oral glucose tolerance test: after a normal carbohydrate intake for several days and then fasting overnight, the person drinks a standard glucose solution (75 grams of glucose for an adult) at a lab, and then a lab blood glucose test is performed 2 hours later. Two hour blood glucose under 140 mg/dl is considered "normal". Two hour blood glucose 200 mg/dl or above is consistent with diabetes. Two hour blood glucose between 140 - 199 mg/dl is not normal, but is not defined as diabetes. It is termed "impaired glucose tolerance"."
