An A1C level of 5.0% is considered normal and indicates good blood sugar control. Here’s what the A1C ranges mean:
A1C Range Interpretation
Below 5.7% Normal 5.7% - 6.4% Prediabetes 6.5% or higher Diabetes
A 5.0% 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, it’s always a good idea to discuss your results with your healthcare provider to ensure you’re maintaining optimal health.
