I don't know for sure, because the measurement you are using is unfamiliar to me. Here in the US, the measurement for well controlled blood sugar is a reading between 70-120 mg/DL (milligrams per deciliter). I think your measurement is in moles and conversion from one measure to the other depends on molecular weight. But, as I recall the conversion for blood sugar is to divide 70-120 mg/DL by 18 which would yield a range of 3.8-6.6 mmol.

False. Normal fasting blood glucose is that level. Untreated diabetics have levels above 11,1 mmol/l
