High blood sugar includes prediabetes and diabetes. Prediabetes refers to a condition in which blood sugar levels are elevated but have not yet reached the diagnostic criteria for diabetes, and are between normal and diabetic. A normal person's fasting blood sugar level should be lower than 6.1mmol/L, while the fasting blood sugar level for diagnosing diabetes should be equal to or higher than 7.0mmol/L. There is a gap between these two values. Similarly, a normal person's blood sugar level two hours after a meal should be lower than 7.8mmol/L, while a person diagnosed with diabetes should have a blood sugar level two hours after a meal equal to or higher than 11.1mmol/L. There is also a gap between the two. If a person's blood sugar is exactly within these two gaps, that is, fasting blood sugar is between 6.1mmol/L and 7.0mmol/L, and/or blood sugar two hours after a meal is between 7.8mmol/L and 11.1mmol/L, the blood sugar at this time is neither normal nor has reached the level of diabetes, and it is called prediabetes.
