    Depends on the laboratory doing the testing for their “normal range”. Generally speaking, 80 to 110 for a finger stick blood sugar level. Less than 200 for total cholesterol and 180 or 160 is now becomming the better “normal”.

    A fasting blood glucose level is normal when it is between 70-99. Pre- diabetes is considered between 100-125. Diabetes is considered when the level is 126 and above on more than one testing occassion. A cholesterol level below 200 is considered desireable and shows a low risk of heart disease. A level of 200-240 is considered moderate risk. At this level your doctor would do a lipid profile to see if your high cholesterol is bad cholesterol or good cholesterol. A cholesterol above 240 is considered high risk.

    The blood level for either depends on the state the body is in at the time of testing. After a fast of at least ten hours the blood sugar is normally in the 90-110 range and the cholesterol in about 180. Look at the printout of your last test and you will see what is normal for each item tested.
