Blood Glucose Unit Converter
Convert blood sugar levels between mg/dL (US/India) and mmol/L (UK/Australia/Canada) instantly. Includes standard fasting and 2-hour postprandial reference ranges. Free, private, no uploads.
Key Capabilities
What is the difference between mg/dL and mmol/L?
Both units measure blood glucose concentration. mg/dL (milligrams per decilitre) is used in the United States and India. mmol/L (millimoles per litre) is used in the UK, Canada, Australia, and most of Europe. To convert: mg/dL ÷ 18.0182 = mmol/L.
What are normal fasting blood glucose levels?
Normal fasting: 70–99 mg/dL (3.9–5.5 mmol/L). Pre-diabetes: 100–125 mg/dL (5.6–6.9 mmol/L). Diabetes: 126 mg/dL or above (7.0 mmol/L or above). These are World Health Organization (WHO) diagnostic thresholds for venous plasma glucose.
Who uses this converter?
Patients who travel between countries comparing lab reports in different units. Indian patients reviewing international medical literature. People with diabetes monitoring their glucose when using devices calibrated in different units.
