The level of sugar in your blood depends mainly on how often and what you eat. It usually rises after a meal (especially after a meal rich in refined carbohydrates), and it goes down when you fast. The pancreas and the liver help you regulate those fluctuations by secreting appropriate hormones into the blood stream. Some degree of fluctuation of the sugar levels in your blood is admissible but in general, the more stable they are the better.
