Our findings suggest that for men with cardiovascular disease, there is apparently no 'normal' blood sugar level. For these men, across the normal range, the lower their blood sugar, the better. Their death rate over a two-year period soars from slightly more than 4 percent at a glucose level of 70 (mg/dl) to more than 12 percent at 100 (mg/dl) an enormous increase.
