Blood sugar at four hours after a meal is close to fasting blood sugar. The normal range should be about 3.9 to 6.1 millimoles per liter. The normal range of blood sugar at two hours after a meal should be 3.9 to 7.8 millimoles per liter. Generally, blood sugar at four hours after a meal should be lower than blood sugar at two hours. However, if blood sugar at four hours after a meal is higher than blood sugar at two hours, it should be considered whether it is because of reactive hyperglycemia caused by hunger. Four hours after a meal when the stomach is hungry, this time the body will stimulate glucagon secretion caused by blood sugar rise, so this situation should pay attention to eat a small amount of food between two meals, to prevent stress blood sugar rise.
