Perfectly normal!Hello, I do not have diabetes but I tested my blood today a couple of hours after breakfast, and got a reading of 4.8mmol/L

4s are fine. Although here in Australia we're not supposed to drive below 5, I think that 4s are normal. I dunno why they have the 5 rule. I was in the 2s the other night and also last night. Don't stressSorry, it was thoughtless of me to post. I was fretting. Lovely photo!
That rule is only for diabetics on insulin, not for non diabetics.4s are fine. Although here in Australia we're not supposed to drive below 5, I think that 4s are normal. I dunno why they have the 5 rule. I was in the 2s the other night and also last night. Don't stressEdit: you're not on insulin and I don't see any other conditions listed so glucagon is going to kick in when your body needs it to and raise your blood sugar. It's how it's supposed to work
Not supposed to drive below 5 IF on hypoglycemic medication perhaps. Most non diabetics would be breaking the law otherwise.4s are fine.

Yeah I thought so which is why I mentioned that Alice is not on insulin. Me, however, on insulin... I can drop from 5 into the 3s in less than 10 minutes. Considering how quickly it can happen the rule does make senseThat rule is only for diabetics on insulin, not for non diabetics.
It's because below 5 you're pretty close to a hypo, so not much room for a little drop before you go too low and become a danger on the road.
