The normal range for glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is typically:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
These ranges are used to diagnose prediabetes and diabetes, as well as to monitor blood sugar control over the past 2-3 months. For most people with diabetes, the target HbA1c level is 7% or less, but this may vary based on individual health conditions and doctor recommendations.
