An A1C level of 5.5% is generally 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 5.5% A1C suggests that your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months are within a 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.
