Metabolic — Glycemic Control
Fasting Glucose
Fasting glucose is the standard single-point measure of blood sugar.
Reference range
Optimization target: 70–90 mg/dL. Functional optimization context only — not a diagnostic assertion. Range varies by lab, age, and sex.
Why it matters
Fasting glucose is necessary but not sufficient. By the time it rises, insulin resistance has typically been present for years. REVRCEL panels read fasting glucose alongside HbA1c and fasting insulin so a single high value is contextualized rather than misread.
How REVRCEL clinicians read it
Read in the context of insulin and HbA1c. A single elevated value is repeated, not acted on in isolation.
