The normal range for A1C levels is as follows:
- Normal: Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
- Diabetes: 6.5% or above
A1C levels reflect your average blood sugar over the past 2-3 months. Maintaining an A1C within the normal range is crucial for preventing diabetes-related complications. For most people with diabetes, the target A1C is below 7%, but your doctor may set a different goal based on your health condition.
