What is a good Fasting Glucose level?

BioForge works to an optimal range rather than the lab's reference flag. For Fasting Glucose that is 70–89, measured in mg/dL — 8–12h fasted. A result inside the lab's normal range can still sit outside the range where most people feel and function well.

Q: What makes Fasting Glucose go up or down?

Raised by refined carbohydrates, excess body fat, inactivity, poor sleep, stress and steroid medications. Improved by fat loss, resistance training, sleep — and often by testosterone therapy itself.
