is 5 a1c good

An A1C level of 5% 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 5% A1C suggests that your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months is around 97 mg/dL, which is within the healthy range. However, always consult your healthcare provider to ensure your overall health and diabetes risk factors are properly managed.
