HbA1c
Your average blood sugar over the last 2–3 months. Doctors prefer it to fasting sugar because it doesn't get fooled by what you ate that morning.
Fasting Glucose
Blood sugar after 8+ hours without food. The basic diabetes screening test.
PPBS
Blood sugar 2 hours after a meal. Shows how well your body handles food; elevated PPBS with normal fasting is an early diabetes clue.
Fasting Insulin
The amount of insulin your pancreas makes at rest. High insulin with normal sugar suggests insulin resistance (pre-diabetes territory).
