The Glucose Management Indicator (GMI) is an estimate of your A1C level based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data. For most people with diabetes, a good GMI target is below 7%, which aligns with the general A1C goal for diabetes management. However, individual targets may vary based on factors such as age, overall health, and risk of hypoglycemia. Always consult your healthcare provider to determine the best GMI target for your specific situation.
