About PPBS Test

A post-prandial blood test measures the amount of blood glucose 2 hours after a regular/ normal meal. This test is usually done along with fasting blood glucose levels. Glucose is the energy source of the body and if it is not taken up by the cells in the presence of insulin, it stays in the blood for a long time. This test is a good measure of how well the body can handle glucose load and gives a fair idea of the amount of insulin produced by the pancreas. Read more
