Normal HbA1c levels are an important indicator of long-term blood sugar control. Here’s a breakdown of the ranges:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
For most people with diabetes, the target HbA1c level is 7% or less, but this may vary based on individual health conditions and your doctor's recommendations. Maintaining a normal HbA1c level is crucial for reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications.
