What is the Blood Glucose (PP) in 2 hrs Test?

Two-hour postprandial blood sugar is a diabetic blood test. In diabetes, the body doesn't produce enough insulin to regulate blood sugar. High blood sugar levels can cause major health issues such as heart, nerve, kidney, and eye damage.

Postprandial is post-meal. This test measures your body's response to sugar and carbohydrates after a meal. Blood glucose, or blood sugar, levels rise rapidly during digestion. Next, your pancreas releases insulin to help transfer glucose from the blood into muscle and other tissue cells for fuel. Normalize insulin and blood glucose levels within two hours of eating. Diabetes develops when blood glucose levels remain high.
