A fasting plasma glucose test is used to test blood glucose during a single session. Usually, this test is performed in the morning-time before you have your breakfast, after a duration of at least eight hours without food. A normal reading amounts to 100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl). A reading of 100 to 125 mg/dl means you have prediabetes, and a reading of 126 mg/dl or higher equals a diabetic person.
