Blood Glucose Target Levels
People with diabetes need to keep their blood sugar (glucose) levels stable and as near to normal as
possible. Knowing your blood glucose target range can help you prevent or delay the start of diabetes
complications with your eyes, kidney, feet and nerves.
Keeping a track and noting down your blood glucose level results on a daily basis will enable you to see
how food, exercise and stress affect your blood glucose levels. Large shifts in blood glucose levels can
leave you upset, confused, frustrated, angry or feeling depressed.
