An A1C level of 4.8% is considered normal and indicates good blood sugar control. Here’s what the A1C ranges mean:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
A 4.8% A1C suggests that your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months is around 91 mg/dL, which is within the healthy range. However, always consult your healthcare provider to ensure your overall health and diabetes risk factors are being managed appropriately.
