The blood sugar concentration or blood glucose level is the amount of glucose (sugar) present in the blood of a human or animal. Convert blood sugar/glucose from mmol/L (EU standard) to mg/dl (USA standard) and vice versa using our blood sugar converter.
How to use blood sugar converter tool?
The use is very simple. This tool will convert mg/dl unit to mmol/l or convert mmol/l to mg/dl.. In the United States of America, blood glucose test (blood sugar test) results are reported as mg/dL. Medical journals and other countries use millimoles per liter (mmol/L).
How to convert your value?
First, select conversion mode. Either select mg/dl to mmol/l or mmol/l to mg/dl.
Input your value (do not include “mg/dl” or “mmol/l”) and press calculate. Result will be displayed below.
Blood Sugar Converter
Low, normal and high blood sugar/glucose levels can be found in the table below.
Expected blood sugar level values
Blood Sugar Level | Children mg/dl (mmol/l) | Adults mg/dl (mmol/l) |
---|---|---|
Normal | 70 – 100 mg/dL (3.9 – 5.5 mmol/l) | 70 – 140 mg/dL (3.9 – 7.7 mmol/l) |
Low | lower than 70 mg/dL (lower than 3.9 mmol/l) | lower than 70 mg/dL (lower than 3.9 mmol/l) |
High | Over 140 mg/dL (over 7.7 mmol/l) | Over 180 mg/dL (over 10 mmol/l) |
Blood sugar level values are a bit different because of unit conversions – from mg/dl to mmol/l.
If you found yourself to have high blood sugar levels – you can lower your BS by maintaining normal body weight, eating healthy and by physical activity.

is 7.1 high for a child
My blood sugar level GP said today was 70 four hours after Lunch meal but GP wants to see level near 58 .
I am Diabetic type2 on insulin 50 units every night after meal and one metformin before breakfast and one after lunch .
Please can you tell me what is 70 according to my glucometer readings of 5.5-7.0 so I can understand what is 70 according to these parameters.
Thanks
Sanjay
my blood sugar level was 53 but my urine test was normal I don\’t want to go on medication for my whole life so is there any way can I control my blood sugar naturally without taking medication? I\’m a bit overweight so if I lose weight will this prevent me from diabetes?
I wonder if you get a reply to your question? If not there is a way to control your blood sugar naturally, it\’s called the keto diet. In it you eat 85%fat, 10% protein and 5% carbs.
There are many websites & books to help you to learn about eating this way. It worked for me.
All the best!
there are the numbers I\’d be interested in for translation

Very useful article. I have forwarded the link to many of my friends and relatives.
[…] mg/dL and mmol/L are units of measure. md/dL is mostly used in USA whereas mmol/L is mostly used in EU and other parts of the world. For easier conversion try our mg/dL mmol/L conversion tool. […]
I brought 2 in 1 Smart blood glucose monitoring system and my reading show 6.1 is that good or bad , i wish these reading where made simple as in ” You have a hight sugar level ” or You have low suger level .
6.1 is good which is normal.

Its about 113 yesterday and 110 today i know thats not alot but its still not normal for my age. Should i go to the doctor and get tested? Or should i just not worry.
Although your blood sugar levels are not that high, a visit to your doctor is recommended. It’s more of a precaution visit.
Any value above 100 mg/dl is considered high for children.
