Overview
What is PPBS (Postprandial Blood Sugar)?
A PPBS (Postprandial Blood Sugar) test measures the blood glucose (sugar) level after a meal, typically two hours after eating. This test helps assess the risk for diabetes and check the effectiveness of the ongoing medication. It is often done as part of routine health checkups and when one experiences symptoms of altered blood sugar levels.
