Impaired glucose tolerance is also characterized by:
-
a fasting plasma glucose of 100-125 mg/dl.
-
Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) > 140 mg/dl
-
HbA1c level of 7 or more
-
Casual plasma glucose of 400mg
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Impaired glucose tolerance is a condition where the body is not able to regulate blood sugar levels effectively, leading to higher than normal levels of glucose in the blood. One of the characteristics of impaired glucose tolerance is a fasting plasma glucose level between 100-125 mg/dl. This means that when a person's blood sugar is measured after an overnight fast, it falls within this range. This indicates that the body is not able to efficiently process glucose and may be at risk of developing diabetes.
