Overview

The Glucose Fasting (BSF) test measures the level of glucose (blood sugar) in the blood after a period of fasting, typically 8â€“12 hours. Glucose is the body's primary source of energy, and its levels are regulated by hormones such as insulin. This test is one of the most commonly used screening tools for diabetes and prediabetes. It helps healthcare providers assess how effectively the body regulates blood sugar and can be used to monitor individuals with diabetes or those at risk of developing the condition.
