Doctor Warns of Common Mistakes Affecting Fasting Blood Sugar Test Accuracy

Dr. Sudhir Kumar of Apollo Hospitals warns that fasting blood sugar tests can produce inaccurate results due to common preparation errors. He emphasizes the importance of an 8-12 hour fast, a normal dinner, adequate sleep (7-8 hours), and avoiding pre-test exercise. These factors significantly impact glucose levels, preventing misinterpretation of results and unnecessary patient anxiety.
