A postprandial glucose test or Blood Sugar Post Lunch Test is a type of blood glucose test used to detect the quantity of glucose present in the blood after a meal has been consumed. Carbohydrates provide glucose. It is the body's primary source of energy. The pancreas secretes insulin which regulates blood glucose levels.

Postprandial blood sugar testing keeps sugar under control after eating. Your doctor may suggest this test if your blood sugar appears to be very high or low. Focus loss, fatigue, and mood swings are common complaints.
