Blood sugar levels, also known as blood glucose levels, refer to the amount of glucose (a type of sugar) present in your blood. Glucose is an important source of energy for your body, and it comes from the food you eat. Your blood sugar levels can be affected by various factors, including the type and amount of food you eat, your activity level, and any medications you are taking.
Normal blood sugar levels for adults are generally considered to be between 70 and 100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) when fasting (not eating or drinking anything except water for at least 8 hours). After eating, blood sugar levels generally rise and then return to normal levels within a few hours.
If your blood sugar levels are consistently too high (a condition called hyperglycemia) or too low (a condition called hypoglycemia), it can be a sign of an underlying health problem and should be discussed with a healthcare professional.

Glucose levels depend on the amount of sugar in the blood. High blood sugar means you have eaten too much sugar, and vice versa for low blood sugar.
