The PPBS (Postprandial Blood Sugar) test measures glucose levels in the blood two hours after a meal and is often performed with a fasting blood glucose test. This test measures how well your body can handle glucose after eating. It helps diagnose and monitor type 1 diabetes, caused by little or no insulin production, and type 2 diabetes, caused by insulin resistance or decreased insulin production. High postprandial blood sugar (PPBS) levels can indicate early insulin resistance, making your body less responsive to insulin.

Insulin - Post Prandial
An Insulin - Post Prandial test evaluates the amount of insulin in your blood, particularly 2 hours after having food, which helps in regulating glucose levels.
Normally after eating, the stomach digests the food, and glucose levels rise rapidly. In response to this, the pancreas releases insulin that helps in moving the glucose from the blood into the cells for the production of energy. If a person has diabetes, it means their body is unable to make sufficient insulin to keep blood sugar in check. This can lead to high sugar levels in the blood which can further cause serious health problems related to the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, etc. Ideally within two hours of having a meal, the insulin and blood glucose levels should return to normal. In case, the blood glucose still remains high, there are chances that the person might have diabetes.
