Glucose Screening Menu
Remember not to eat anything after midnight the night before. Eat exactly what is on your menu, nothing more, nothing less (for example, no chocolate in your milk). You must ingest the breakfast (50 grams of carbs) by whatever meal you decide within 15 minutes. Then you will have your blood drawn one hour later for accurate results.
