Hello and welcome to healthcare magic.
Sugar level spikes after taking meals is known as Postprandial
hyperglycemia.
Blood sugar levels of non diabetics rarely exceed 140mg/dl. If you are having persistently high levels it means your glucose tolerance is impaired and you are at risk of developing type 2
diabetes and cardiovascular events.
There are several risk factors
impaired glucose tolerance (also known as pre diabetes ) e.g
Obesity
sedentary lifestyle
family history
Pregnancy
In healthy people, glucose levels in the blood always rise after a meal but they soon return to normal as the glucose is used up or stored. A
GTT helps to distinguish between this normal pattern and the patterns seen in diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance.
Evidence has shown if impaired glucose tolerance is caught and treated early progression of type 2 diabetes and its complications can be slowed and even prevented
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO :
Investigte your self
RBS

At the moment, lifestyle changes are the most important thing if you are found to have impaired glucose tolerance
LIFE STYLE CHANGES:

Most commonly "metformin" , an oral hypoglycemic drug , is prescribed.
