About this test
Understanding Glucose
Glucose is the most abundant monosaccharide, a simple sugar that falls under the category of carbohydrates. It plays a vital role as the primary source of energy for the body's cells.
Overview of the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT)
The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), also known as the glucose tolerance test, is used to evaluate how efficiently the body processes and eliminates glucose from the bloodstream.
How the Test is Performed
After fasting for a specific period, the individual consumes a sugary solution. Blood samples are then collected at intervals to measure the body’s ability to metabolize glucose.
