The fluctuation of blood sugar (red) and the sugar-lowering hormone insulin (blue) in humans during the course of a day with three meals. One of the effects of a sugar-rich vs a starch-rich meal is highlighted. [1] The blood sugar level, blood sugar concentration, blood glucose level, or glycemia is the measure of glucose concentrated in the blood.
Blood glucose monitoring is the use of a glucose meter for testing the concentration of glucose in the blood ( glycemia ). Particularly important in diabetes management, a blood glucose test is typically performed by piercing the skin (typically, via fingerstick) to draw blood, then applying the blood to a chemically active disposable 'test ...

The way it usually works is a group of people that know each other get together to collect money (either weekly, monthly, yearly) to help each other financially.
Purpose. test taken from a non-fasting subject. A random glucose test, also known as a random blood glucose test ( RBG test) or a casual blood glucose test ( CBG test) is a glucose test (test of blood sugar level) on the blood of a non- fasting person. This test assumes a recent meal and therefore has higher reference values than the fasting ...

Graph depicting blood sugar change during a day with three meals. The glycemic (glycaemic) index (GI; / ɡ l aɪ ˈ s iː m ɪ k /) is a number from 0 to 100 assigned to a food, with pure glucose arbitrarily given the value of 100, which represents the relative rise in the blood glucose level two hours after consuming that food.
