targeting postprandial glucose compared
with those targeting preprandial
glucose (48). Therefore, it is
reasonable for postprandial testing
to be recommended for individuals
who have premeal glucose values
within target but have A1C values
above target. Taking postprandial
plasma glucose measurements 1–2 h
after the start of a meal and using
treatments aimed at reducing postprandial
plasma glucose values to
,180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L) may help
lower A1C.
