An A1C level of 5.5% is considered normal and indicates good blood sugar control. Here’s a breakdown of A1C ranges:
A1C Range Diagnosis
Below 5.7% Normal
5.7% - 6.4% Prediabetes
6.5% or above Diabetes
A 5.5% A1C suggests that your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months is around 111 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 they align with your overall health goals.
