What Happens to Blood Sugar After Eating?
After a meal, carbohydrates break down into glucose, causing a rise in blood sugar levels. In response, the pancreas releases insulin to help cells absorb glucose for energy. Normally, blood sugar peaks within 30 to 60 minutes and then starts dropping as insulin works.
Why is it Measured Exactly at 2 Hours?
The 2-hour postprandial (PP) blood sugar test is recommended because:
✔️ By 2 hours, blood sugar should return close to normal if insulin is working properly.
✔️ It helps assess how well the body processes glucose after a meal.
✔️ It follows international guidelines (WHO & ADA) for diabetes diagnosis & management.
