Hi Ashok, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.

Your Blood Sugar reports are fairly normal, need not worry, but you should bring in some lifestyle changes to prevent diabetes. You don't require medicines.

Avoid smoking, high calorie foods, alcoholism, stress. Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight.

Wish you Good Health.

Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

Normal fasting levels are between 70-100.

Two hour post-prandial should be below 120.

I suggest you to avoid sweets and consult a physician.

Hope I have answered your query.

Wishing you good health,

Regards,
