1)If you had a fasting blood glucose test, a level between 70 and 100 mg/dL (3.9 and 5.6 mmol/L) is considered normal.
If you had a random blood glucose test, a normal result depends on when you last ate. Most of the time, the blood glucose level will be 125 mg/dL (6.9 mmol/L) or lower
2) About High Blood Sugar (Hyperglycemia)
Common signs of high blood sugar include frequent urination, fatigue, dry or itchy skin, feeling thirsty, more frequent infections
About Low Blood Sugar (Hypoglycemia)
When your blood sugar drops rapidly, or when the reading is 70 mg/dL or below if you take medications for diabetes, you may experience symptoms of low blood sugar such as shaking, sweating, rapid heartbeat, headache, hunger, weakness, fatigue, impaired vision, anxiety, irritability, and dizziness.
3)Glucoregulation is the maintenance of steady levels of glucose in the body by carbohydrates metabolisms.

26. Why did Jessie’s carnitine deficiency cause her to have abnormally low plasma glucose levels at the end of a fasting study, when compared to a healthy person who has fasted for the same length of time? In the absence of carnitine, the liver stores large amounts of glycogen; absorption of glucose to create these stores depletes blood glucose Carnitine acts as a hormone and stimulates glucose release from the liver; lack of carnitine results in loss of hepatic glucose...
