An A1C level of 6.1% is generally considered good for someone with diabetes. Here's what it means:

• A1C Target: For most people with diabetes, the goal is to keep A1C levels below 7% to reduce the risk of complications. Source: CDC
• 6.1% A1C: This indicates well-managed blood sugar levels and is close to the normal range (below 5.7%).
• Next Steps: Continue following your diabetes management plan, including diet, exercise, and medication, as prescribed by your doctor.

However, individual targets may vary based on factors like age, health conditions, and risk of hypoglycemia. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
