**Postprandial blood sugar** refers to the measurement of blood glucose levels after eating a meal. This test is typically conducted 1-2 hours after eating to evaluate how well the body processes glucose following food intake. It helps assess insulin function and is crucial for diagnosing and managing diabetes and other glucose metabolism disorders. **Key Points:** - **Purpose:** To measure the body's response to glucose after a meal and evaluate postprandial glucose control. - **Clinical Relevance:** Helps diagnose diabetes, monitor glucose levels in diabetic patients, and adjust treatment plans. - **Interpretation:** Elevated postprandial blood sugar levels may indicate insulin resistance or poor glycemic control. Maintaining normal postprandial glucose levels is essential for effective diabetes management and overall metabolic health.
