Postprandial glucose refers to the level of glucose in the blood after a meal. Postprandial glucose levels are important to monitor for individuals with diabetes or at risk of developing diabetes, as high postprandial glucose levels can contribute to a range of health problems. Managing postprandial glucose levels can involve making healthy dietary choices, including choosing foods with a lower glycemic index and limiting carbohydrates, as well as engaging in regular exercise and taking any necessary medications as prescribed. Working closely with a qualified healthcare professional to develop an individualized management plan can help to promote optimal blood glucose control and overall health.
