Instead, âcrude proteinâ is actually a chemical analysis of the food whereby the amount of nitrogen present is used to estimate the amount of protein in the food. While nitrogen does come from animal protein, it also comes from non-animal proteins like grains, as well as other non-protein nitrogen (NPN) sources.f there is a high percentage of crude protein on a dog food label we might assume it indicates high quality protein, and top notch food â but if we really understood what those two words mean, we would think about it differently when choosing a dog food for our tail-wagging family members.
Normal and diabetic blood sugar ranges. For the majority of healthy individuals, normal blood sugar levels are as follows: 1  Between 4.0 to 6.0 mmol/L (72 to 108 mg/dL) when fasting.
The normal blood glucose level (tested while fasting) for non-diabetics, should be between 3.9 and 5.5 mmol/L (70 to 100 mg/dL). The mean normal blood glucose level in humans is about 5.5 mmol/L (100 mg/dL); however, this level fluctuates throughout the day. Blood sugar levels for those without diabetes and who are not fasting should be below 6.9 mmol/L (125 mg/dL). The blood glucose target range for diabetics, according to the American Diabetes Association, should be 5.0â7.2 mmol/l (90â130 mg/dL) before meals, and less than 10 mmol/L (180 mg/dL) after meals (as measured by a blood glucose monitor).
