I had a postprandial blood sugar (PPBS) test 2 hours after a meal, and the result was 250. Can you explain why this level is high? Also, can I take fish oil (Omega 3) for cholesterol management?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I recently got my blood sugar test done with fasting and my report showed 99 mg/dl. I performed the same test 8 months ago and it was 84. I am also currently undergoing homeopathy treatment. Please advise if my report is normal. I do not want it to reach 100 mg/dl. How can I lower it? I am worried.
