The A1C test measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. Here are the standard ranges for A1C results:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
For most people with diabetes, the goal is to maintain an A1C level of 7% or less, though this may vary based on individual health conditions and doctor recommendations.
