What I try to stay within is: under 140 at 1 hour and under 120 at 2
hours. That is what I've been told will keep my BG in "normal" range.
At 4 hours, if weren't 1 or 2 hours post a snack, I'd expect to be in
the mid-low 80s.
I don't know what you mean by "morning ratio." For diagnostic purposes,
a normal fasting BG reading is under 100. 100-125 is pre-diabetic or
impaired glucose tolerance. 126+ is diabetic.
