Your target of 6 is good,but 7 is not bad at all.7 and below is considered a safe level.So,there is no need for you to worry.Diet plays the most important role in reducing sugar level.Please understand the concepts of glycemic index and glycemic load.Use the search function on this web page to access earlier posts on these concepts.Knowledge so gained will help you to decide what,how much and when to eat food to control your sugar levels.

Fasting should be below 5.56. Lchf diet,exercise, IF etc can help.
