A member asked:

Im 40 year old my fasting plasma glucose is 6.0 i want to know if it is high or low?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

High: I assume the 6.0 refers to mmol/l, a measurement typically used in europe. In the us, this would be 108 mg/dl. A fasting glucose above 100 mg/dl (5.5 mmol/l) is considered high. If it is above 125 mg/dl (7 mmol/l) it is consistent with diabetes.
