A two-hour postprandial blood glucose of 8.8 mmol/L is not normal and is considered to have abnormal glucose tolerance and may be prediabetic. If you are diabetic, it is considered normal and is considered to be glucose control. Under normal circumstances, the two-hour postprandial blood glucose level is less than 7.8 mmol per liter; greater than or equal to 7.8 mmol per liter but not reached 11.1 mmol per liter for impaired glucose tolerance, belongs to the pre-diabetic stage; consecutively non-same day more than two times the test two hours postprandial blood glucose level of greater than or equal to 11.1 mmol per liter, at the same time have diabetes symptoms can be diagnosed as diabetes. For diabetic patients, the glycemic control goal is generally between 4.4 mmol per liter and 7.0 mmol per liter of fasting blood glucose, and no more than 10.0 mmol per liter of non-fasting blood glucose. If a diabetic patient develops a two-hour postprandial blood glucose of 8.8 mmol per liter, this is often considered normal, and a glucose control goal needs to be set based on the patient’s situation. When two-hour postprandial blood glucose is abnormal, further testing of fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin is needed to comprehensively assess the condition. For patients with impaired glucose tolerance, it is recommended that they should first regulate their eating habits and slow down the speed of their meals, and at the same time, it is also recommended that they adhere to appropriate daily exercise to control their weight to a normal range, so as to avoid the progression of diabetes. For patients with increased blood glucose level two hours after meal, please consult the endocrinology department of regular hospitals for active diagnosis and treatment.
