The prediabetic range for blood sugar levels, as measured by the A1C test, is between 5.7% and 6.4%. This range indicates that blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.

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

If your A1C falls within the prediabetic range, it is important to take steps to manage your blood sugar levels through lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and weight management to prevent progression to type 2 diabetes.
