The normal range for A1C hemoglobin levels is as follows:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
These ranges are used to diagnose prediabetes and diabetes. For most people with diabetes, the goal is to maintain an A1C level of 7% or less, though individual targets may vary based on medical history and doctor's recommendations.
