POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. A glucose challenge test result of 147 mg/dL is slightly elevated, as most guidelines suggest that a normal result is typically under 140 mg/dL. The fact that you consumed a chocolate protein powder in milk three hours before the test may have influenced the result, as protein powders and milk contain sugars that can raise blood glucose levels.
While a result of 147 is not drastically high, it could indicate a potential risk of gestational diabetes if you are pregnant. However, it’s important not to jump to conclusions based on one test. Your doctor may recommend further testing, such as a glucose tolerance test, to confirm whether there is any cause for concern. In the meantime, try to follow any dietary recommendations and consult your healthcare provider to get a clear assessment and appropriate follow-up.
