what is a good gmi percentage

The Glucose Management Indicator (GMI) is an estimate of your average blood glucose levels over the past 2-3 months, similar to the A1C test. A good GMI percentage depends on your individual health goals and diabetes management plan. However, general guidelines are:

• Normal: Below 5.7%
• Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
• Diabetes: 6.5% or above

For most people with diabetes, the target GMI is 7% or less, but your healthcare provider may set a different goal based on your age, health conditions, and risk factors.
