What is the role of PPBS testing in diabetes management?

PPBS testing measures blood sugar levels two hours after eating and plays a crucial role in evaluating how well diabetes is controlled. It helps assess how effectively medications, insulin, and dietary choices manage post-meal glucose spikes. Consistently high PPBS levels indicate poor glucose control, which can increase the risk of complications like cardiovascular disease and nerve damage. Regular PPBS monitoring ensures timely adjustments to treatment plans, improving long-term diabetes outcomes.
