Prediabetes is diagnosed when your A1C level falls within the following range:
- A1C Range: 5.7% to 6.4%
This indicates that your blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. If you fall into this range, it’s important to take steps to manage your blood sugar through lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, to prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes.
For reference:
- Normal A1C: Below 5.7%
- Diabetes A1C: 6.5% or above
