What Is an FBS Test?

A fasting blood sugar (FBS) test is a simple blood test that measures the amount of glucose (sugar) in your blood after you have not eaten for several hours. The test uses a blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm. This test helps detect and diagnose diabetes mellitus and prediabetes, and helps assess how well your body manages blood sugar levels.

Frequently asked questions

Find quick answers to the most common questions about health tests, bookings, and reports.

Diabetes can be controlled through a balanced diet rich in fibre and low in processed sugars, regular physical activity for at least 150 minutes weekly, maintaining a healthy weight, monitoring blood sugar levels regularly, and taking prescribed medications as directed by your doctor.

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition where your body either doesn't produce enough insulin or becomes resistant to insulin. This causes glucose to build up in your bloodstream instead of being used for energy by your cells.

Prediabetes means your blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not yet high enough for a diabetes diagnosis. It can often be reversed through lifestyle changes, like weight loss, healthy eating, and increased physical activity.

Factors include diet type and timing, physical activity levels, stress, illness or infections, certain medications like steroids, lack of sleep, dehydration, and hormonal changes. These can cause temporary fluctuations in blood sugar readings.
