About SugarCheck
A reference site about blood glucose that is honest about the limits of being a reference site.
Why it exists
India has the largest diabetes burden in the world and the search results to match. Type "normal sugar level by age" and you will be given a colour-coded chart that no health authority published. Type "glycemic index of Indian foods" and you will be given three hundred values, most of which nobody has ever measured. People make real decisions from those pages.
SugarCheck publishes the criteria as WHO and the American Diabetes Association actually wrote them, converts HbA1c with the equation the ADA uses and prints that equation on the page, and lists a glycemic index only where a peer-reviewed study produced one. When the honest answer is "nobody knows", the page says nobody knows.
Who runs it
SugarCheck is built and maintained by Amit Sharma, a marketer based in Auckland, New Zealand, alongside a family of free data tools published at amit.marketing. I am not a doctor. That is exactly why this site publishes primary sources and printed arithmetic instead of advice, and why it stops at the point where a clinician's judgement begins.
There is no medical reviewer on this site
Sites in this subject routinely display a "medically reviewed by" line. Some of those reviews are real. Many are decorative. SugarCheck has not been reviewed by a clinician, so it displays no reviewer name, no credential and no badge — because inventing one would be a lie about exactly the thing a reader is trying to judge.
What it does instead is name the publication behind every number, so you can check the source rather than trust a badge.
What it will never do
Diagnose. Recommend a treatment, a medicine or a dose. Publish a glycemic target for you. Claim a food, a spice or a herb treats diabetes. Promise a reversal. Estimate a glycemic index. These are not omissions — they are the design.
How it is funded
Advertising, through Google AdSense, and one link per page to my own fitness challenge at PeakForm, which is a training and accountability programme and explicitly not a substitute for your doctor's advice. No threshold on this site has ever been adjusted to suit an advertiser, and nothing here is a paid placement.
The sister sites
Calories and macros for Indian dishes live on ThaliFacts; BMI on the Asian-Indian cutoffs and other health calculators are on SehatCheck. They share this site's rule about showing the source.

If a number here disagrees with the primary source, the primary source wins. Send the page URL and it gets fixed.
