A member asked:

What is a normal blood sugar level approximately 4 hours after eating breakfast?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Should be < 140mg/dL: You're best off looking at a 2 hr post meal blood sugar because by the time 4 hours have gone by, blood sugar may have come down from a much higher value.
