What should be the blood sugar level after 40 years?
At the age of 40, the blood sugar level of a normal woman before eating i.e. fasting sugar should be between 70 and 130 mg/dL. Normal blood sugar for men up to the age of 50 should be between 70 and 130 mg/dL before meals. Blood sugar is considered high if it exceeds this level. As we age, the pancreas produces less insulin, causing blood sugar levels to remain high for longer periods of time. Diabetes is caused by low insulin sensitivity and low insulin production.
